From the Philippine News Agency (Mar 11): Eastern Mindanao Command chief dons rank to newly-promoted reservists

Lt. Gen. Ricardo Rainier G. Cruz III, chief of the Armed Forces of the Philippines Eastern Mindanao Command, personally donned the ranks of newly-promoted reservists on Monday at the command's headquarters in Davao City.

The newly-promoted reservist officer was Col. Marvin Manos while Major Hermenegildo Cardona Jr. took oath for his appointment from the AFP Reserve Force commander Brig. Gen. Quirino S. Calonzo.

Cruz congratulated Manos for his promotion and Maj. Cardona for his appointment.

“May this promotion and appointment further inspire you to work with us in the service for our people. We thank you for your enthusiasm to share your talents and skills in the name of the service. As doctors, you are mostly engaged in our respective careers, but still you can be peace agents even when not in military uniform,” he said.
