SLU
Tops the ROTC Summer Cadre Training 2000
From
the Saint Louis Chronicle, September 2000 edition
(http://www.slu.edu.ph/Publications/Chronicle/pdf/sep2000.pdf)
The
Air Reserve Center of the Philippine Air Force conducted
an annual 2-month Advance Course Training for ROTC
Cadet and Cadette Officers nationwide, which started
from April 1 to May 30, 2000 at Air Force City in
Clarkfield, Pampanga. In connection with this, the
SLU-PAF ROTC Unit sent 12 ROTC officers as delegates
on the said training namely: CDT 2C1 Ruel Alangui,
CDTTE 2C1 Madily Tico, CDT 3C1 Arnold Ablasa, CDT
3C1 John Bayao, CDTTE 3C1 Ericson Tafaleng and CDT
3C1 Roy Yapyapen.
The
training that lasted for two months includes several
field exercises as well as classroom instructions
which is then culminated the Field Training Exercises
(FTX) in the mountains. It is another distinction
for the SLU-PAF ROTC Unit to have our delegates emerge
as the top graduates wherein CDT 3C1 Juner Gumad-ang
was the recipient of the Distinguished Graduate Award
for garnering the highest overall rating of 90.08%
during the whole duration of the training. CDT 3C1
Roy Yapyapen also received an award for being the
second overall graduate in terms of academics. Moreover,
CDT 2C1 Ruel Alangui was a recipient of another ward
for excelling in the 14 kilometer Cross-Country Marathon
Run.
It
is also note taking that most of the officers sent
were among the top ten graduate which is a record
still held by the University ever since the training
started years ago. These achievements only show the
high standard training employed by the SLU-PAF ROTC
Unit.
