Lt.Col. Ricky L. Canatoy assured the sustainability of the anti-insurgency programs initiated by Lt.Col. Roy Anthony O. Derilo during the change of command ceremony presided by 4th Infantry Division commander MGen. Franco Nemesio M. Gacal.
"I assure the leadership of the 4th Infantry Division that I will give my best effort to improve upon, sustain the effort, and build the gains of my predecessor to further advance the peaceful war," he said.
Canatoy also told the 58th IB troopers to continue serving the people. "We already made progress in the operationalization of EO 70 and even hailed by national leaders as a model task force on ELCAC. I am confident of your individual and collective capacity to ensure the accomplishment of our mission," he said.
Before submitting his tour of duty report, outgoing commander LtCol. Derilo shared that one of the best practices of the battalion was treating the former rebels well.
"I got the most relevant and rich information these former rebels shared and freely contribute. As a result, we were able to develop a better and intelligent picture of the enemy and the situation," he said.
For his guidance, 4th ID commander MGen. Gacal advised LtCol. Canatoy not to be afraid to try out new concepts, ideas and approaches if he thinks it will help them win. He further told him to be flexible and innovative in terms of tactics, techniques, and procedures.
