This
is the story of Philippine Reserve Officer Training
Corps.
|
| |
| The
Early Years |
The
following four sections were taken from
the book "Military Education in the
Philippines" written by Brigadier
General JOSE G. SYJUCO, an advance ROTC
graduate of the Ateneo de Manila ROTCU
|
|
| |
| The
Spanish Years |
During
the Spanish colonial years, there was a
training course, similar to what is presently
known as ROTC, at the University of Sto.
Tomas. |
| Modern
ROTC Begins |
To
most contemporary writers, however, real
ROTC in this country did not start until
1912, when military instruction was conducted
at the University of the Philippines
. . . |
| ROTC
in World War II |
Records
show that the products of ROTC were called
to the colors in 1942 and, during the occupation,
proved their worth on the battlefield. |
| Post-war
Training |
Executive
Order No.59 . . . made mandatory for all
colleges and universities . . . the inclusion
of the ROTC Course in their respective curricula

The
project has neither requested nor received any official approval
from either the Ateneo de Davao University to construct and maintain
this site. It is not, and was never meant to be, the official
website of the Ateneo de Davao ROTC Unit.
