Philippine Army (PA) commander, Lt. Gen. Gilbert Gapay on Monday commended the Army Aviation Regiment (AAR) for its contribution in containing the coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) pandemic and helping secure the country's vast maritime territories via aerial reconnaissance and maritime patrols over Northern Luzon, Eastern Mindanao, and Western Mindanao.
“President (Manuel) Quezon uttered these words 83 years ago but they currently speak about us: ‘Our Army is rapidly taking form as an agency equipped to provide for future Philippine security.’ Indeed, we are getting closer to our vision of a world-class Army that is a source of national pride, and I can see that in you,” Gapay said in his speech during the AAR's activation anniversary ceremony at Fort Magsaysay, Palayan City, Nueva Ecija.
In a message to the Philippine News Agency, PA spokesperson Col. Ramon Zagala said the AAR's air assets have been involved in securing the country's air and maritime territories as well as in transporting medical supplies and personal protective equipment (PPE) sets for front-liners to battle against the Covid-19 pandemic.
Gapay, meanwhile, congratulated the regiment in their modernization efforts, particularly in the training of additional aviators, rotary-wing pilots, multi-engine rating, and air traffic personnel.
He also acknowledged the unit's efforts in improving existing doctrines as a result of added capabilities and changing operational environment.
