Huks reorganize as senior citizens
|
SAN FERNANDO CITY, Pampanga: Hundreds of aging members of the infamous Hukbo ng Bayan Laban sa Hapon (Hukbalahap) trooped to the provincial capitol on Tuesday to reorganize as senior citizens.
They were not any different from a group of elderly people gathered for an event. Some were too old and needed assistance, although some managed to move around and catch up with old friends.
The Hukbo ng Bayan Laban sa mga Hapon, more popularly known as Hukbalahap or Huks, was organized during World War II as an armed resistance against the Japanese army that occupied the country at the time.
