NAVAL STATION JOSE ANDRADA, Manila, Feb. 27 -- Forty-one (41) Philippine Navy (PN) senior officers were promoted to the rank of captain/colonel in a donning ceremony held here on Monday, February 24 administered by the Flag Officer In Command, Rear Adm. Giovanni Carlo Bacordo.
Senior officers who have just elevated to one rank higher are: Capt. Archibald Dino C.Delfin, Capt. Oliver B. Reforba, Capt. Dwight Steven M. Dulnoan, Col. Joel M. Lazo, and 37 other PN senior officers.
In his speech, Rear Admiral Bacordo commended the PN’s new captains and colonels -- 28 from the regular force and 15 from the navy reserve component--for their hard-earned promotion.
“The milestone you have achieved today is the reward of the extra effort you put into your work, the sacrifices you continually endure to serve more and the sterling performance and excellent service you have done for our navy,” he highlighted.
A donning of ranks ceremony is a time-honored military tradition for newly promoted officers as recognition of turning point in their respective careers and further calls for them to become more deliberate and prudent as it always comes with great responsibility. (PN)
