The said 242 trainees, including a local-based photo-journalist, are coming from the towns of Palimbang, Lambayong, President Quirino and Esperanza, all located in Sultan Kudarat province.
The graduation ceremony took place inside the camp of the 12th Regional Community Defense Group (RCDG) of the Army Reserve Command (ARESCOM) in Kalawag 1 in Isulan, Sultan Kudarat.
Carreon was the invited guest of honor and speaker of the said ceremony.
“Malaki ang role ninyo sa pag-gather ng information sa inyong respective communities,” Carreon said in his speech.
Carreon said, “through monitoring and reporting of suspected personalities and illegal activities, makakatulong kayo ng malaki.”
Carreon reminded the newly-graduated reservists “to always display good conduct” and he is expecting them to be “a law-abiding citizen” in their localities.
“Huwag kayong maging mayabang dahil mga reservist na kayo. Protect your uniforms. Serve your communities to the full extent of goodness,” Carreon stressed.
Colonel Redentor Mojares, group commander of the 12 RCDG based in this town, assisted Carreon in distributing the certificates and awards to the graduates.
Colonel Nedy Espulgar, director of the 1202 Community Defense Center (CDC) of the 12 RCDG based in Sultan Kudarat, turned-over the newly-graduated reservists to Lieutenant Colonel Suharto Mangudadatu, the commander of the 1202 Ready Reserve Infantry Battalion (RRIB) of the Sultan Kudarat province.
