CAMP CAPINPIN, Tanay, Rizal – Commander of the 2nd Infantry Division, Philippine Army visited 85th Infantry Battalion in Quezon on September 1, 2021, as part of the visit and inspection of military commanders to their subordinate units.

Major General Rowen S Tolentino visited 85th IB in Barangay White Cliff, San Narciso, Quezon at 8:00 O Clock on the morning of the said date. The said military commander has been visiting 2ID's subordinate units since he assumed his post on July 27, 2021.

Major General Tolentino's visit marked the 1st time that the unit was visited by a Division Commander since the Battalion's transfer in Quezon. The said commander makes it a point to keep in touch with his subordinate units to know the mental, ethical, and physical state of his troops in order to ensure that the morale of the personnel is high at all times. The Commander also reminded the troops to keep on creating an environment conducive for sustainable development and maintain a just and lasting peace in the area of Quezon. He also reminded the troops to be vigilant, anticipate and act decisively to finish the enemy.

Major General Tolentino visits the units and the men on the field not only to boost their morale, deliver support, and reiterate the Army's thrusts to maximize current operational success but as a duty of a commander to his men.

The commander's visit ensures that the line units are on the right track and not deviate from their assigned mission. It also serves as an energy booster and often time could be a significant game-changer.
