The Eagle is the king of
the forest. Ferocious and vigilant, he reigns majestically over
his dominion. The Eagle is a disciplined and patience bird.
His ferocity complements his patience, for he can wait perch
from high branches without detection nor the sound just waiting
for his prey. He is quick and sure of his moves. His wings are
wide and strong. The Beak is his primary weapon is unbreakable
and dependable. The sealed talons of the Eagle speak of his
maturity in the many battles he has fought such as the 43rd
Infantry Battalion. We aspire to be the best in the art of soldiery.
We believed that with our discipline and patience weakens the
enemy. Like the beak of the Eagle, our unceasing determination
gives us strength and dependability in the face of any mission
we undertake.
The Wide Spread Wings signifies
our vow to protect and uphold the law, the peace and serenity
of the nation. Like the talons of the Eagle, maturity
in our decision and commitment towards attainment are
our noble ideals and aspirations. |
The Armalite is the basic weapon of the
unit and held below the Eagle to signify that the civilians
reign supreme over the military might. It also reveal
to us that aside of its primary task to fight in defense
of the country and people, it can also perform civic-oriented
services towards nation building development. |
