Topic: Philippine Military Academy


  
  Military academy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The term military academy commonly refers to all pre-collegiate, collegiate, and post-collegiate institutions, yet graduate institutions, catering for officers already in service, are often considered separately and termed staff colleges.
Military academies can be either private or have government sponsorship from regional (state) or national government.
The primary educational goal at military academies is to provide a high quality education that includes significant coursework and training in the fields of military tactics and military strategy.

 The Academy   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
The new official history of the Philippine Military Academy was recently traced to its indigenous beginnings upon President Emilio Aguinaldo's issuance of a decree on October 25, 1898 [Philippine Insurgent Record 240.1] establishing an Academia Militar in Malolos, Bulacan under Colonel Manuel Sityar.
Upon its reactivation, the Academy's post-war mission was, "to develop in the graduated cadet character, basic and broad military skills, and the education necessary for his successful pursuit of a progressive military career, and to inculcate in high ideals of honor, duty, integrity, discipline and leadership in which to anchor firmly that career."
The mission of the Academy was the first to be revised and bore distinct similarity with the current mission - "to instruct, train, and develop the cadets so that each graduate shall possess the character, the broad and basic military skills and the education essential to the pursuit of a progressive military career.

The Philippines had an unbroken tradition of civilian control of the military until martial law was imposed in 1972.
