From the Visayan Daily Star (Dec 3): Bonafos named AFP CentCom commander
The incoming commanding general of the Armed Forces of the Philippines Central Command in the Visayas region is a mistah of Negrense Brig. Gen. Ademar Tomaro.
Maj. Gen. John Bonafos, a member of the Philippine Military Academy Class 1982, will replace Air Force Lt. Gen. Roy Deveraturda, who assumed command of the AFP Western Command in Palawan yesterday.
As CentCom chief, Bonafos will supervise all AFP units in Visayas.
Before his appointment as AFP Central Command chief, Bonafos had also served in the Western Visayas as commander of the 15th Infantry Battalion, chief of staff of the Army’s 3rd Infantry Division, and deputy commander of the 302nd Infantry Brigade in Negros Oriental, military records show.
Other members of the PMA Class 1982 who served in Western Visayas, aside from Tomaro, who is the 602nd Infantry Brigade commander, include newly-promoted Maj. Gen. Aurelio Baladad, 3rd Infantry Division commander, Maj. Gen. Jet Joel Velarmino, 8th Infantry Division commander, and Brig. Gen. Ivan Samarita, 202nd Infantry Brigade commander, and Brig. Gen. Francisco Patrimonio, 302nd Infantry Brigade commander.
Negrense Lt. Gen. Rey Ardo, retired, was replaced as AFP Western Mindanao Command chief by Marine Lt. Gen. Rustico Guerrero.
