We have all come to know Philippine Army Special Forces when 44 of them died in a clash in Mamasapano. It was considered as one of the most tragic encounters that our soldiers had against the terrorists in Mindanao. It was after they were called in a mission to take down a high value target. They accomplished the mission yet failed to accomplish another, coming home alive.
These Special Forces, with the motto, "Courage and Determination in Service to The Nation, embody the true meaning of sacrifice. They are soldiers specially trained by the US Army Special Forces. They are trained to undergoing further training in demolitions and bomb disposal (EOD), psychological warfare operations (PSYOPS), riverine operations, combat diving, as well as VIP security training in preparation for a reassignment with the Presidential Security Group.
A documentary video about their work have been making rounds in the social media recently after a certain Bala Tamayo posted it on his facebook with the caption: "Most people don't even know who we are or what we do, precisely because that is how we accomplish our missions.
Unseen, unheard, we do our share, without fanfare nor trumpets blare.
We are Silent Professionals.
We are the Philippine Army Special Forces."
