Romy Dominguez, former CG, NOLCOM, his career was alsmost destroyed by the Basilan fiasco, however, according to reliable sources, there was politics involved as "somebody" doensn't want him to be the CG, PA and favoring another officer, thus, they tried to destroy Dominguez.

When these cadets graduated and became officers, they were tempted by the teeming opportunities to amass wealth quickly, and they did by dipping into the coffers of the AFP and other agencies. They long to escape the poverty and simplicity of their childhood and cadet days and would not allow themselves to remain so or get rich by honest means. The rush to get rich at the expense of people's money are just too tempting for these errant officers. Take a headcount of all officers who play golf today at swank golf courses, I bet you my ass that most of them belong to families who can't even afford to buy a golf club when they were PMA cadets, and look at them now - driven to golf courses from their huge mansions by low-paid NCOs. Cadets who came from upper middle class and upper class (rare) were more into adventurism than theft. There are of course many poor cadets who remained poor even when they became colonels and generals. But they are the minority. OUCH!!!!
