BACOLOD CITY – The life of soldiers while fighting the terror group Maute-Islamic State in Marawi City was not easy. ADVERTISEMENTLumayno was one of the 81 soldiers belonging to the Army’s 31st Division Reconnaissance Company who were given heroes’ welcome at the provincial capitol on Friday morning following their stint in Marawi City. The five soldiers from Negros Occidental who died during the Marawi gunbattle were also honored during the ceremony on the Provincial Capitol grounds in Bacolod City. “For the past 4 months and 16 days in Marawi City, all the pain, hardship and sacrifice we encountered is part and partial of our job,” Lumayno said.
