Last Tuesday, 26 March 2013, was our Convening Ceremony, the Naval Command and Staff Course Class 74 (NCSC Cl-74) with RADM JAIME S BERNARDINO AFP as the keynote speaker. RADM BERNARDINO AFP who hails from Taytay, Rizal is the current Commander of the Naval Education and Training Command; who himself is a certified educator. He was a consistent honor student growing up and became a proud member of the Philippine Military Academy Class 81. In the Navy, he completed all career courses with distinction that include the Naval Officer’s Qualification Course in 1981, the Naval Command and Staff Course in 1993 and the Naval Command and General Staff Course in 2001. He talked about the importance of taking up the Naval Command and Staff Course (NCSC) and shared some tips on how to excel and succeed. I have to agree when he quoted that “Taking up the course is not just for compliance but for the students to learn and increase their knowledge”. He emphasized the importance of taking the course and becoming a more responsible naval officer. RADM BERNARDINO emphasized four points that a student should bear in mind while being in the course. First; study. I think that it is not only to study but to learn. Learn from the lectures, activities and from the instructors. Study not just to pass the exams and be able to comply with the requirements, but most importantly is study to learn. As senior grade naval officers, while it is true that the Naval Command and Staff Course (NCSC) is one of the requirements for promotion, a student should take the course with seriousness, pride and

    The instructors make them question why they are there by pushing them to their limits. The cadets learn there is no time to have mistakes. The one thing on their mind is to graduate and become a Navy Seal. They know that it "pays to be a winner". By the end of the week one almost half of the class is gone because they couldn't take the training or got injured. This makes the cadets still in training feel great about themselves, knowing that they made it longer than others.…

    Despite non-selection, my pursuit of this prestigious and challenging position will not be deterred. My naval career, I have continually sought positions of greater responsibility and produced exceptional results in each of those positions. While I take great pride in being a Chief Petty Officer, I feel the experience I have acquired as a Chief will benefit any wardroom I am a member of. It is important to note that I did not submit an LDO-CWO package for FY-14 due to the time constraints I experienced while standing up Naval Beach Unit SEVEN with an under staffed office and operational commitment.…

    J.R.O.T.C (Jr. Reserve Officer Training Course) was a credit to my self confidence in high school. I tend to focus solely on my academics but when taking J.R.O.T.C grades only count for partially your overall average. I expanded my horizon physically, mentally, and emotionally and was able to grow as a student. I push past many mental barriers and was able to see my progress traveled with me. Many failed obstacle courses and conferences allowed me to take position on the battalion in contributed more to the overall program. As the s-1 officer, I was responsible for many things include: keeping accurate records, planning field trips, planning objective meetings, passing out emails, and contacting local battalion for conference. I had to learn…

    A Marine NCO in my eyes is characterized by being a leader, hard worker, and well disciplined individual. I want to model myself after the great NCO’s that have inspired me since I have joined the Marine Corps. These Marines were there for me on every occasion. When I had just picked up LCpl I got in trouble during C school. After my Page 11 it was the NCO’s around me that kept me from giving up. The pushed me to try even harder and to learn from my mistakes to better myself. I want to be able to instill the same motivation and hope in my junior Marines. After my 22 months as a LCpl in the Marine Corps I learned a great deal from the Corporals and Sergeants who were in charge of me . They have always had a plan for every action or mission…

    I took this elective course because when I saw the description of the course I immediately believe that this would be very relevant for me. I came from an organization that is among the largest single employer in the country, which is the Philippine Army. We are more or less 85,000 strong, and with that number cultural and social diversity is a certainty. Thus for an officer like me who would be handling a large number of personnel in the future, a course in organizational behavior would be essential. Although I already took a similar course in my BS major in Management at the PMA, still that is an undergraduate course and I believe the level of teaching and approach would be higher, and that the focus…

    The Best interest of the Child is a concept that has now gained international recognition and has been incorporated not only in international instruments1 but also in domestic laws of several countries. Children like women originally had more or less the value of property or were considered statements of wealth rather than individuals entitled to rights and protection; and when women were finally granted rights that were previously denied to them the child was alas not given the same. Indeed the child was assimilated with the mother and the understanding was that if the mother is happy so is the child. In other words the child was identified as being “a part” of the mother so that if the issues related to mothers are addressed so are the issues related to children.…

    I am Cadet Colonel Hernandez JMG, the Wing commander of the CAT organization batch 2016-2017 here at Colegio de San Lorenzo. I joined the CAT organization when I was in grade 8. Being a cadet officer candidate and a student at the same time is not easy. I trained for almost one year to become an officer. There’s a lot of struggles that I’ve been through. At first, I really don’t know why I joined this organization. My brother, Cadet Corporal Hernandez JG, also joined the CAT organization. He is the one who encourage and inspired me, this is only one of my reason why I joined COCC. COCC stands for Cadet Officer Candidate Course. A lot of people say, “Why did you join COCC? Isn’t it hard?”, “You will not be able focus in…
