Col. Roy Devesa assumed the post from outgoing 503rd IB CO Brig. General Paul Atal who served for two years and six months as 503rd IB commander. Both belong to Philippine Military Academy (PMA) Class 1985.
Atal, who earned his Brigadier general rank while assigned here, expressed gratitude and deep appreciation to local officials, sector leaders and the entire community for extending full support to the peace programs of the Army in the province.
In his acceptance address, Devesa impressed a two-point peace program for the command - stand for the principle of Mission Accomplished and always set up front people’s care and protection.
‘As members of the Armed Forces, particularly the Army, let us always remember that we are here to fulfill our mission for the country and our countrymen’, Devesa said.
Meanwhile, Gov. Jocel C. Baac assured the province’s strong support to the Army in the province.
He stressed on the established partnership of the 503rd IB and the provincial government in providing reintegration assistance to former rebels in their transformation to normal and peaceful life.
