Romeo Brawner Jr. said among those that they had discussed at the sidelines of a meeting in Malacañang on Monday were to monitor the post-military service activities of all of Army personnel with “special skills.”Currently, the Army only keeps track of its bomb disposal experts, who could be tapped by terrorists to become bomb makers.
“But now, I am ordering our units to also generate a list of our snipers, assaulters, special forces, and LRR , so that when they’re discharged, we already have intel on them,” he said.
