“We wish General Sobejana all the best in his new tour of duty as we pray for his success,” dagdag ni Roque.

Nagtapos si Sobejana sa Philippine Military Academy Class ‘87, ginawaran ng medal of valor – ang pinakamataas na karangalan sa militar dahil sa ipinamalas na tapang sa pakikipagsagupa sa mga teroristang Abu Sayyaf sa Basilan noong 1995.
