For my various contributions to the Armed Forces of the Philippines and the country as a whole, I was conferred the Presidential Lingkod Bayan Award by my Commander-in-Chief, H.E. President Benigno S Aquino III. The awarding was held at the Rizal Hall of Malacanan Palace on September 19, 2012 at around 10:00am. (Malacanang Photo)
