The training is on-hand using short pistols with the students trained on the proper
technique and understanding of the four fundamentals of marksmanship.

Lectures on information awareness against the communist terrorist groups,
patriotism and love for the country were also given.

Lt. Col. Julito B. Recto, Jr., acting commander of 91IB, said that prior to the activity
a gun safety seminar was conducted for safety of the students.

“We explained to the learners about the foundation of responsible gun handling,
protection and ethical standards of firearm users. The training was conducted on
our shooting range to provide them a most secure environment,” Recto said.

For his part, Maj. Gen. Andrew D. Costelo, commander of the 7 th Infantry
