TARLAC CITY, Tarlac (Sept. 7, 2023) — Northern Luzon Command (NOLCOM) troops are currently undergoing marksmanship training at the Camp Aquino Integrated Pistol and Rifle Firing Range.
“This type of training aims to further improve the pistol shooting fundamentals of every NOLCOM personnel ensuring they are versatile, flexible, and highly skilled in dealing with any situation, regardless of the level of intensity, across the entire spectrum of military operations,” NOLCOM Commander Lt.

“Continuous training is fundamental to maintaining our readiness. It is part of our efforts in striving to become a Sustainment-Maintained and Readiness-Trained Force, protectors of the people,” Buca said.
