Training to be a reservist in the PAF MBOpinions READ:
I, myself, joined the training to be a reservist in the Philippine Air Force . It is not for the weak of heart. You have to get up earlier than 4 a.m. for several Saturdays to start training. And so while I admittedly do not possess the strongest physique, in addition to having been a nocturnal, the tenacity of my spirit has pushed me to forge on with the training just so I can become a part of the reservists.
Training as the AFP says, is a major task in enlisting reservists; from Military Orientation Training Course to the Basic Citizens Military Training which I have been undergoing. There are two kinds of reservists.
It was in 1997 when the first batch of female cadets graduated as soldiers in the Philippines. There was Presidential Saber Awardee Arlene A. Dela Cruz. In 2011, an Ilongga who became Brigadier General became the first female general in the Philippine Army after being a regular officer, Ramona Go.
And indeed, my own female reservist trainers in the PAF have been more than empowering- Col. Ritza Ann M. Jovellanos, TSg Aileen Joyce A. De Guzman, SSg Mary Ann C. Climaco, AW1C Engely Q. Solidario, AW1C Erika Jane S. Pante and AW Joy Rea L. Baylon. These are women who understand and know first-hand how to train women such as themselves without having to play second fiddle to the men who have dominated the forces.
