“He praised Maj. Gen. Cruz for running the command, particularly when it came to transporting relief to people affected by disasters all around the nation. The ASCOM commanders and personnel were welcomed by the Army chief, who also introduced Brig. Gen. Ulanday as a general officer who is qualified to manage ASCOM “added Trinidad.
