Winwyn Marquez says she feels stronger than ever after going through her military reservist training.
Kapuso actress and soon-to-be-reservist Winwyn Marquez couldn't help but look back at her journey as she nears the culmination of her training under the Philippine Marines.
On Instagram, the 28-year-old host posted an appreciation letter dedicated to her batchmates and other reservists who went through the rigorous training prepared by the Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP).
“So much respect for my batch and for everyone who went through this training,” she wrote on Instagram Story.
“Alam ko wala sa kalingkinan ang training na 'to sa regular force (saludo ako sa inyo sa hirap ng ginagawa n'yo).”
Winwyn continued, “Pinush ng lahat para matapos kami nang sabay-sabay… Hindi ko ma-explain pinagdaanan namin. After ng field training, mixed emotions talaga ako pero I feel like a different person now -- I feel stronger than ever.
“Mate-test ka talaga sa tatag mo… If only I can post all the photos and show all their faces dahil gusto ko ipagmalaki batch ko sa inyo.”
According to the Glow Up host, despite the many challenges her batchmates faced, their desire to complete the training together has helped them act as one unit.
“Walang shortcut, walang kaartehan, totoo lang,” she said.
“May mga conflict, may iba't ibang issues, pero sa ending, 'di hinayaan masira ang morale ng lahat. Inayos at nagkaisa pa rin.
“Iisa lang ang goal namin, iisa lang ang purpose: To serve and to protect the people and to help in times of need.”
She concluded, “Since day 1, I was there, and I gave my all for my class, and I know everyone else did. Blood, sweat, and tears, and it was all worth it.
“Marines oorah! #PHMarineReserveForce #BCMC0120 #BCMCDAKILA #PHFleetMarine”
