THE EASTERN Mindanao Command (EastMinCom) marked a dual celebration on Oct. 6, commemorating the 35th AFP Code of Conduct Day and simultaneously launching the official emblem for the upcoming 90th Founding Anniversary.
The ceremony, held at the Naval Station Felix Apolinario in Panacan, was led by EastMinCom commander Lt. Gen. Luis Rex D. Bergante, deputy commander Commodore Dwight Steven M. Dulnoan PN, and Naval Forces Eastern Mindanao commander RADM Constancio Arturo M. Reyes Jr.
AFP Chief of Staff Gen. Romeo S. Brawner Jr. led the national unveiling of the 90th Anniversary logo, symbolizing nine decades of honor, service, and dedication to the Republic.
Brawner emphasized that the emblem serves as both a tribute and a promise.
“The 90th Anniversary Logo tells the story of nine decades of service and sacrifice… It is both a tribute to their legacy and a promise that the AFP will remain steadfast in defending the Republic, modernizing our force, and meeting the challenges of our times,” he stated.
Brawner also highlighted the enduring importance of the 35th Anniversary of the AFP Code of Conduct, which guides every soldier’s integrity, discipline, and professionalism.
“The AFP Code of Conduct reminds us that strength without integrity is hollow,” he added. “For 35 years, it has served as our moral compass—guiding us to uphold honor, service, and patriotism, and ensuring we remain disciplined, principled, and worthy of the Filipino people’s trust.”
The Logo and the Code of Conduct embody the true spirit of the AFP: unwavering in defense of the nation and steadfast in upholding its core values of honor, service, and patriotism.
