CAMP SIONGCO, Maguindanao – Two hundred and two candidate-soldiers on Sunday started their rigid training at the 6th Infantry Division (6ID) Training Center in Barangay Semba here.
Maj. Gen. Diosdado Carreon, the 6ID commander, told the aspiring soldiers during sendoff ceremonies that they should persevere if they wish to serve the country.
“Make good on your chosen profession as there is no such thing as an easy soldiers’ training," Carreon said during ceremonies held inside this camp, which is the 6ID headquarters situated in Barangay Awang of Datu Odin Sinsuat town.
Carreon reminded the aspirants that once they become soldiers, every one of them should be ready to give their lives for the protection of the country at all costs.
“Do good, don’t fail your families, they have high expectations,” he said in the vernacular.
Carreon, also chief of Army-led Joint Task Force Central, lauded the parents and relatives for allowing their sons and daughters to join the Army.
Out of more than 1,000 applicants, the 202 candidates -- 11 of whom are women -- passed the physical, medical, neurological and psychological examinations to begin their six months of training.
