Gavan cites ‘professionalism’ of PCG personnel in escorting ‘Atin Ito’ convoy

Philippine Coast Guard Commandant, Admiral Ronnie Gil Gavan, has lauded the professionalism displayed by his uniformed personnel who were tasked to guide the ‘Atin Ito’ coalition in its second civilian supply mission to the West Philippine Sea this week.

“Our men and women ensured the safety and security of approximately 160 passengers and crew of the FFV John, FFV Aguian, FFV Paty, FFV Bing Bing, as well as local and foreign media partners who documented the civilian supply mission on board our Coast Guard ships,” Gavan said. Between May 15 to 16, BRP Bagacay reported at least three CCG vessels with bow numbers 4108, 4109, and 4203 that shadowed the ‘Atin Ito’ flotilla.
