Phl Army tops shoot olympics among uniformed personnel

From the Philippine Information Agency (Oct 11): Phl Army tops shoot olympics among uniformed personnel

Philippine Army (PA) topped the recently concluded AFP-PNP-PCG (Armed Forces of the Philippines-Philippine National Police-Philippine Coast Guard) Shooting Combat Olympics which was held at Camp O’Donnell.

Training and Doctrine Command Commander Brigadier General Herminigildo Francisco Aquino said the annual competition seeks to bring out the competitive, camaraderie and spirit-de-corps among the three armed uniform services.

PA ranked Number 1 in the Over-All Pistol Championship Match followed by Philippine Air Force (PAF), Philippine Navy (PN), and Philippine Coast Guard (PCG).

PA likewise topped the Over-All Rifle Championship Match followed by PAF, PCG and PN.

“To the winners, victory must be tempered with humility,” Aquino said.

PA is set to compete in the 26th ASEAN Armies Rifle Meet which will be held in Camp O’Donnell from November 21 to December 7.
