Meanwhile, Brig. Gen. Jose Maria Cuerpo ll, the 103rd Infantry Brigade Commander and the event’s keynote speaker, encouraged the recruits to put their expertise and abilities to good use to help the organization complete its mission.

The recruits were formally accepted through the traditional reception rites to test their physical strength and mental endurance.
