My cousin who's in the army recently sent me a message, informing me he's somewhere in the Samar hinterlands fighting the insurgency. He jokingly tells me he's still alive and kicking, literally.
I always wonder what drove him to enlist in the military, considering the grave risks?
Maybe it runs in the genes.
I have an uncle who fought on the other side of the fence, consequently disappeared and has never been heard from when the NPA purged its ranks of suspected infiltrators.
