20 SEPTEMBER 2026 | PADRE BURGOS, SOUTHERN LEYTE

Beneath the waves, courage is tested, skills are sharpened, and teamwork becomes the lifeline.

On 20 September 2026, the reservists of 805RRIBn and 805CDC, led by MAJ ROWELL B TAGALA (INF) PA, Director, 805CDC, together with brave and diving-enthusiast reservists from different Community Defense Centers (CDCs) of the 8th Regional Community Defense Group (8RCDG) under the leadership of COL RAMONITO C TABOY FS (GSC) PA, participated in SCUBA Training Exercises conducted at Padre Burgos, Southern Leyte.

The activity aims to strengthen the capabilities of the Reserve Force in disaster relief, rescue, and emergency response operations throughout Eastern Visayas (Region VIII), particularly in situations requiring specialized skills and coordinated response in aquatic and coastal environments.

As part of the first-response capability in the Province of Southern Leyte and as an integral component of the Reserve Force, the personnel of 8RCDG, RESCOM, PA continuously develop their skills and readiness to support government efforts during disasters, emergencies, search and rescue operations, and other humanitarian missions—whether on land, at sea, or wherever the mission calls.

More than just a training activity, the SCUBA exercise demonstrates the capability, commitment, and spirit of volunteerism of our reservists—citizens who willingly dedicate their time, skills, and service in support of the nation and their fellow Filipinos.

Every dive is more than training. It is preparation to save lives.
Every skill gained is a commitment to serve.
Every challenge faced strengthens our readiness.
Every reservist who volunteers strengthens the nation’s capacity to respond.

From land to sea, the Reserve Force stands ready—not only to respond, but to support, serve, and make a difference when every second counts.

🤿 TRAIN. DIVE. RESPOND. SERVE.
🇵🇭 Ready beneath the waves. Ready for the mission. Ready to serve Eastern Visayas Region VIII.

RESERVE FORCE: A FORCE OF VOLUNTEERS, A FORCE FOR THE NATION. 🇵🇭

🇵🇭 NATIONAL RESERVIST WEEK 2026 — CULMINATION | 12 SEPTEMBER 2026

“LAANG KAWAL: SANDIGAN NG BAYAN SA KAPAYAPAAN, KAAYUSAN AT KATATAGAN.”

A Reservist is more than a soldier in uniform—we are a Laang Kawal, a steadfast pillar of the nation.

When the nation needs helping hands, we serve.
When communities face adversity, we stand.
When disaster strikes, we respond.
And when the country calls, we answer.

We are fathers, mothers, professionals, workers, students, and ordinary citizens—yet united by one extraordinary commitment:

TO SERVE THE FILIPINO PEOPLE.

From kawanggawa that uplifts communities,
to kaunlaran that builds a stronger tomorrow,
and katatagan that keeps our nation standing—
the Reservist remains ready, committed, and steadfast.

🔥 LAANG KAWAL.
🔥 SANDIGAN NG BAYAN.
🔥 LAGING HANDA SA PAGLILINGKOD.

Because the uniform may come off after duty,
but the heart of a Reservist never stops serving.

RESERVISTS TODAY.
SANDIGAN NG BAYAN.
STRONGER PHILIPPINES TOMORROW. 🇵🇭

MABUHAY ANG MGA LAANG KAWAL!
MABUHAY ANG SANDATAHANG LAKAS NG PILIPINAS!
