PALAYAN CITY, Nueva Ecija — At least 250 military personnel availed of free eye check-up and prescription glasses in an eye mission conducted by Armed Forces of the Philippines Officers’ Ladies Club, Inc. (AFPOLCI) here.
Major General Felimon Santos Jr., commander of the Army’s 7th Infantry Division, said Friday beneficiaries include 100 Kaugnay troopers, 100 Special Operation Command (SOCOM) personnel, 25 from the Army Artillery Regiment (AAR), and 25 from the Training and Doctrine Command of the Combat Arms School and the Combat Service Support in Fort Magsaysay.
Santos lauded the eye mission activity, noting it served well for the welfare of his men.
“We would like to thank the AFPOLCI for its mission that is geared towards providing better visual health to our soldiers,” he said.
The group headed by Jayne Guerrero, wife of the Chief of Staff of the AFP, General Rey Leonardo Guerrero., led the eye mission Wednesday.
The eye mission is in line with one of the objectives of the AFPOLCI, which is to assist the AFP in its effort of promoting personnel morale and welfare to its members and dependents. (PNA)
