ILIGAN CITY (MindaNews / 09 July) — President Rodrigo Duterte’s aborted trip to Marawi last Friday introduced a new type of military attire not prescribed by the Armed Forces of the Philippines’ (AFP) but who will dare say the AFP Commander in Chief violated the AFP Uniform Code?
The first Mindanawon President and the first with Maranao blood, dressed up for his visit to the country’s lone Islamic City on Day 46 of the Marawi Crisis, his second attempt in 29 days, in his own version of the AFP’s battle dress attire: digital camouflage uniform, sleeves rolled up, topmost button open, gray suede sneakers and gray ball cap, his Galil assault rifle slung on his right shoulder. And no bulletproof vest, just a white sando underneath.[]/a> with |||
