Major General Jet B. Velarmino, Commander of 8ID, Col.
Divino Rey C. Pabayo Jr., Chief of Staff and Lt. Col. Noel A. Vestuir,
Assistant Chief of Staff for Personnel together with the military dependents
led the pinning of ranks to the men and women of this Command who have
satisfactorily satisfied the requirements set by the Philippine Army's
Promotion System.
It can be recalled that at least 1,233 personnel were
promoted effective August this year wherein 433 of which are Corporals, 334
Sergeants, 358 Staff Sergeants, 71 Technical Sergeants and 27 Master Sergeants.
Candidates were selected after looking into their Individual
Evaluation record which gauged a soldier’s competency and reputation in the
service. Other requirements which were satisfied include 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 (PFT).
Field units under this Command are also scheduled to conduct
the same activity which symbolizes the rich military custom and tradition
wherein the officers pin new collar chevrons on the Battle Dress Uniform (BDU)
of the promoted soldiers as the promotion orders are being read while in military
formation.
Major General Jet B. Velarmino, 8ID Commander, congratulated
the newly promoted soldiers as well as their families as it is expected for
them to perform their best in every endeavor as they gain more
responsibilities, and be thankful for the Father Almighty for the blessing
bestowed upon the personnel of this Command for the hard work and dedication
they have exerted through the years of service in the country.
