The People's Champ awarded with a command plauqe

Camp Aguinaldo grandstand was jam-packed on Sunday when Boxing Champ Manny Pacuiao was awarded by Military Chief Gen. Alexander Yano with a command plaque. Manny holds the highest rank for enlisted personnel.

Being a reservist Army, Manny is very proud to be one and would brag about it even in America. He would even fight alongside with his fellow comrades but that wouldn't happen cause Manny's superior won't allow it cause he just might end up challenging the rebels to a round of boxing.

As a kid, Manny's dream was to be a soldier but ended up as a boxer instead. Grateful, cause he was given a chance to be a reservist Army. Manny Pacuiao is thankful to his long time friend Military Chief Gen. Yano as they have been friends since Yano was still a colonel, a commander back then of the 602nd Infantry Brigade based in his hometown of General Santos City as Manny was still starting to break in the international scene.

He deserves it. He is no doubt a true Filipino pride. I hope he always keep his foot on the ground and save money for the future when the time comes that his career will be at low.
