That’s how the parents of 25-year-old Cadet First Class Janrey Artus described their son, who topped the Philippine Military Academy (PMA) Masaligan Class of 2021.

The young Artus, who hails from Barangay Guintorilan, San Enrique, Negros Occidental is the third among the four children of Florencio, 62, a retired soldier, and Jocelyn, 62, a retired teacher.
According to Florencio, it didn’t cross Janrey’s mind to enter the military service. It was his eldest brother, who graduated from PMA in 2017, who encouraged him to try taking the entrance examination that year.
