From the Philippine Information Agency (Dec 27): 401st Brigade celebrates AFP day with gift-giving
To highlight the Armed Forces of the Philippines’ (AFP's) 81st Anniversary, some 50 Indigenous Peoples (IP) households and 150 children from selected IP communities in the barangays of San Jose, Puting Buhangin and Awa of this municipality were recently treated by the Army’s 401st Brigade to a simple Gift-giving Christmas activity.
A bundle of gift of assorted goods and rice was distributed to each of the households while they were being entertained with Christmas carols rendered by the 401st Brigade Band led by Capt. Jasper Gacayan. The soldiers were joyfully welcomed and cheered by the populace as they sung together with the band.
“The mission of your Brigade is to bring peace and joy to everyone,” said 401st Brigade Commader Col. Cristobal Zaragoza.
The goods were part of the proceeds of the caroling done by the combo during this yuletide season.
