"Four days na silang pinned down. 20 sila lahat na Armor personnel na kasama sa isang V150 at isang SIMBA. Na RPG ng Maute ang kanilang mga mechanized vehicles. Apat ang patay nila na nasa loob. Pero nag hold the line ang mga 16 na buhay ng apat na araw. Buti na lang dumating ang First Scout Ranger Battalion na nag rescue sa kanila, style Black Hawk Down. 24 hours na bakbakan bago sila nailabas. Thanks to the Scout Rangers. (Yung two soldiers sa left, one with green shirt and the other standing, yung mga na rescue. Si Ranger Captain Erwin Ercilla, seated, right, ang isa sa mga nag rescue sa kanila.)"
