Steps for the application:
I took the AFP Aptitude Test Battery in Central Command sa Cebu. Then I went to Manila in Fort Bonifactio sa Taguig for good. When the recruitment office released the quota. I went to Bulacan at the First Scout Ranger Regiment, Camp Tecson, San Miguel Bulacan dahil gusto action. Gusto ko sanang maging Musang. In the Ranger, you have to undergo a series of exam, written, physical, medical and neuro psychological exam. I undergo my medical and neuro in Fort Magsaysay sa Nueva Ecija. Well I stayed in the camp of the best of the best in the Light Reaction Batallion. I was called a "striker" I help the Mess Sargent cooked food for the soldiers.
After you pass this series of exam, you well undergo the 6 months training of Candidate Soldier Course with pay na. After graduation, then you will become an Enlisted Personnel na. syempre malaki laki na yung pay mo. The problem of Enlisted Personnel, you have to renew, I think, after 2 years nang pagka enlisted mo. To override the hassles of re-enlistment you have to take the Scout Ranger Regular Soldier Course. Another 6 months of training to get the what they called the "Tabak", a sword badge. Well, its not only the Scout Ranger Regular Soldier Course para maging regular Soldier ka of the Philiipine Army. There is Airborne, mayroon then Scuva marami pa sigurong iba. Tanong ko muna...heheheh.
Correct me if I am wrong ha..heheheh.
I did not continue because of the rigid training and my Moral is getting low. Ang mga kasama kong striker ay nakita ko nalang sa Zamboanga Siege. Sundalo na sila.
Nice one, keep safe.
