The Armed Forces of the Philippines extends its sincerest condolences to the family and friends of General Rodolfo Biazon who passed away this Monday, June 12.
General Biazon served as AFP Chief of Staff from January 24 to April 12, 1991, the first one to come from the ranks of the Philippine Marines. Prior to this, he also served as the AFP Vice Chief of Staff, Commanding General of AFP NCR Defense Command and Commandant of the Philippine Marine Corps.
General Biazon played a pivotal role in defending the country’s democracy and upholding the integrity of our armed forces. His commitment to public service extended into his political career, serving as a senator who championed key legislations that advocated for the welfare of our countrymen.
His leadership and integrity will continue to inspire future generations of servicemen and public servants.
The AFP shall provide appropriate military honors to the late General Biazon in recognition of his legacy and sacrifices as a soldier and head of the military. ///
