Major General Lysander Suerte, commanding general of 5ID, led the men and women in the camp in a fun run recently commemorating Women’s Month held inside the camp’s major roads.

The theme for this year’s celebration is “Juana, Desisyon Mo ay Mahalaga sa Kinabukasan ng Bawat Isa, Ikaw Na!".

The fun run is one way of saluting the great contribution of women in nation building and in maintaining internal peace and security.

Women soldiers are now part of the strong army and other branches of the Armed Forces of the Philippines.

At least 100 men and women soldiers join the fun run led by the commanding general.

Meanwhile, the Isabela Police Provincial Office (IPPO) also expressed its support to Women’s Month celebration.
