Thanks for this Interview Dennis. My first assignment in Mindanao was in Jolo and our camp was right beside the Army camp. Gen Luga was in charge and his Deputy was Col Cordero. On my 1st night, our Camps was attacked and fighting only stopped when the Army's Mortar Team (on the mountain at the other side of the airport) started pelting the rebels. Seeing the General looking well, puts a smile on my face.
I'm glad you made it out, pero curious lang ako why are you referring to the army as a separate element? Ibang branch kaba noon or were you part of a journalist or relief aid team na naka attach sa military?
Thank you for sharing these stories, this really means alot to hear the ones involved on keeping the country whole n stable. Unlike the news who only shows celebs who make nonsense artificial drama. This is what Filipinos should be more appreciative n cocncerned. Unity as a national identity n also progress.
This was the time UK supplied arms and training to the MNLF via Malaysia when UK explored Sabah for oil deposits. The claim was a front to keep the side in mindanao with a conflict. The Sultanate only wanted more rent because of the oil discovered in Sabah.

according to my Dad he did not have a Graduation rites from their candidate soldier training, they were woken up at night and ordered to board the trucks 6x6 and brought to the Navy ship." Naluha na siya dahil naisip niya totoo na ito." He fought in Siasi, Sulu 1973.
I was graduating from HS in 1973 and we were the first batch of Martial Law HS graduates. At that time, this issue was already in many newspaper headlines. To hear now that our soldiers were only armed with pistols (38's) and shotguns says how rotten the situation of our soldiers were. Isipin nyo Marcos was already in power for 9 years at this time. And America's involvement in the Vietnam war was at it's height - tapos wala tayong armas to protect ourselves from an impending conflict? I hope the situation is totally different now.
They proceeded to Midsayap and encamped. and with their volunteer civilian buddies proceeded to the frontlines. They did not know the place and fortunately for them, they found relatives since most of the populace came from the Visayas. They did not have problems regarding food and other logistics since Midsayap was proper ly organized under the leadership of the late Mayor Nicolas Dequina.
I remember during 1973 Mindanao War, my father was one of the sector kumander of CHDF in Parang. I was 8yrs old then. He was issued a Thompson Automatic Gun

The so called Pintakasi is simply a classic war tactic used since ancient times. The Romans used it too, total war. Everybody who can carry arms fights.
HaHaHa My Father Gen. is a Leader member of CHDF in our Barrio, he’s a WW-II Veteran anyway as a Sgt. Radio Man in Luzon Theatre during the WW-II. He was issued a Thompson as his Official Gun, during CHDF time but at home he owned a Carbine as his Personal Gun that he didn’t surrender during 1972 Ordered by late Pres. Marcos Sr.
Mabuti at naging presidente si Mayor Digong Duterte kasi kung hindi sa kaniya ay ang Pilipinas ay kapos parin sa armas hangang ngayon lalo na at ang sabi ng bagong presidente ay hindi kailangang mag dagdag ng armory kasi kunin naraw sa peaceful talk sa ibang bansa.

Duterte corrupted the military and use as private army.
MNLF rebellion was the result of the jabidah massacre
tama ka kaaptid dyan nagsimola ang lahat ng sakit at paghihinagpis sigalot laban sa isa wlang kabulohang patayan . ang totoo 7 katao lng sa mga jabida trainy ang nka ligtas doon sa corregidor island
Walang jabidah massacre Hindi Yan totoo.✌️
Youd be surprised how much easy it is to fabricate events, mag hire ka lang ng news na komunist allied, tapos sisirain mo pang communities, tapos hindi man din ma unlad ang pinas. Puro kayo propaganda, lahat ng govt mali, mga terrorista tama. Lang utak kayo💀
@@gilbucao3303ang jabidah ay totoo kaya nga naitatag ang mnlf
Nabudol ni Ninoy si Misuari tungkol sa massacre that never was.
Patikul and Mamasapano massacres?
We did not learn from past lessons. Plain and simple stupidity.
These are not massacres, these are encounters in the battle field where there are hundreds of scattered guns and dozens of bodies on both sides.
Colonel Lademora
Pres. Ramos?
Sir si Gen Ramos ay cya ang Chief ng Phil Constabulary noon 1973
Sir si Gen Ramos ay cya ang Chief Phil Constabulary noong 1973
Jabidah massacre is not true
Yes,you're right we met some members of the Jabbidah in early 70s they mention nothing about massacres !
My father was one of the jabbidah trainees, at first they were trained properly to "wreck havock" in sabah. But when Ninoy Learned about the forces that being trained in corregidor. Then major martelino started to deprive them with foods up until early in the
Morning with supposed morning jog they were lined up. Martelino said "it wasnt your fault" then they started shooting. My father were afloated with 4 plastic drinking bottles until some of the fisherman saw him in the break of the dusk.
