]]> Comment on Death of an Ensign by Chito http://www.phillippestano.com/blog/2007/12/death-of-an-ensign/#comment-25 Chito Sat, 26 Jan 2008 00:02:29 +0000 http://www.phillippestano.com/blog/2007/12/12/death-of-an-ensign/#comment-25 I was looking for images to pay tribute to fallen Sailors (US Navy) in Iraq and Afghanistan when I stumbled into this tragedy. As a Naval Officer with deep roots in Manila, this news is truly tragic. ENS Pestano was trying to live his life as a Naval officer, bent on sticking to his personal values when it was cut short, presumably by those whom he trusted, and served with. I don't know if this case would ever see closure. As a career military officer, the biggest indictment on the system is the fact that fellow academy grads were implicated. These are supposed brothers-in-arms that ENS Pestano spent four years of his life with. If you can't trust fellow "ring knockers", then who can you trust? To read something like this makes me sad as a military officer, but sadder as a Filipino. To Mr. and Mrs. Pestano - as tragic as this story is, I commend you for raising a son who lived his life with uncommon character and unwavering integrity. I hope you somehow find peace. I will pray for his soul. I was looking for images to pay tribute to fallen Sailors (US Navy) in Iraq and Afghanistan when I stumbled into this tragedy.

I condole with the family of Ensign Philip Andrew Pestano. May his soul rest in peace and may the good Lord console his family and loved ones in their bereavement. Having said that, what has happened to Retired Admiral Pio Carranzo? Is he able to sleep at night knowing that this vile crime had been committed under his watch?

Marcelo, Father Nebres' good friend, then asked Pepe Pestano to file a formal petition with the Ombudsman for the case to be reopened. Before Sim Marcelo stepped down as Ombudsman in December, 2005,finding the Pestanos' Petition meritorious, he caused the case to be formally reopened by ordering seven Respondents to submit their counteraffidavits. Also, it was two members of Ateneo HS '62 who arrangedthe meeting with Father Bernas at the Ateneo Law School in Makati to seek his legal advice on the planned film/documentary on Phillip's case. Just to set thefacts straight and the respective roles of Fathers Nebres and Bernas.
