The happiness and smile of CAA Dante Tagala can be seen even if he’s wearing a face mask.

CAA Tagala is a CAFGU Active Auxiliary (CAA) securing the people of Barangay Pisompongan, Midsalip, Zamboanga del Sur.

He doesn’t mind being in the frontlines; he just wants to keep the people safe from the CPP-NPA’s atrocities and acts of terrorism.Yesterday, September 9, he was presented a Certificate of Recognition by the Commanding Officer of the Philippine Army’s 53rd Infantry “Matapat” Battalion (53IB) Lt. Col. Jo-ar Herrera for his passion and dedication to duty.

Now, CAA Tagala is more motivated to serve the people he has sworn to protect.
