A total of 1,920 soldiers of the Army's 3 rd Infantry
Division assigned in Negros and Panay were promoted, and Maj. Rey Tiongson, 3ID
Public Affairs Office chief, yesterday said these include 940 corporals, 580
sergeants, 293 staff sergeants, 57 technical sergeants, and 50 master
sergeants.
Tiongson said they have satisfactorily satisfied the
requirements set by the Philippine Army's Promotion System after their
Individual Evaluation record, which gauged a soldier's competency and
reputation in the service, were placed under scrutiny.
Other requirements that were satisfied include a required
minimum number of years in one's current rank, passing grade on a competitive
promotional examination, completion of a career military occupational specialty
course, physical and neurological-psychological examination and physical
fitness test.
Tiongson said the pinning of ranks ceremony was held Friday
at Camp Macario Peralta in Jamindan, Capiz, while field units under the 3ID are
also scheduled to conduct a similar activity.
Maj. Gen. Rey Leonardo Guerrero, 3ID commander, in a
statement, exhorted the newly-promoted soldiers to remain professional and
faithful to their sworn duty.
Promotion to the next higher rank also comes with an
increased pay and allowances.
