A series of six simulated scenarios were enacted through the Incident Command System (ICS) at Crime Scene Plaza, Camp General Mariano N. Castañeda, Silang, Cavite. These scenarios aimed to assess the skills and knowledge of various police stations, jails, and fire stations by presenting diverse challenges.

The first scenario involved the transportation of a high-profile PDL from Malvar City Jail to the justice hall for dismissal of the case. Police and jail officers were tasked with providing route and area security, as well as escorting the PDL.

In the second scenario, the extraction of a high-profile PDL from the Hall of Justice to Malvar City Jail required ensuring the safe extraction of the individual.

For the third scenario, teams were challenged to perform a Scene of the Crime Operatives (SOCO) operation and establish an ICS structure in response to an ambush. Emergency medical and rescue services were to be provided by the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP), along with identifying and apprehending suspects and filing appropriate charges.

The fourth scenario simulated a hostage-taking incident, requiring the establishment of an Incident Command System, deployment of tactical teams and hostage negotiators, adherence to Police Operational Procedures (POP) and rules of engagement, ensuring the safety of hostages, and apprehension of the hostage-taker.

In the fifth scenario, participants tackled a Hazmat and Fire Incident, tasked with suppressing the fire and conducting hazardous materials (HAZMAT) operations.

Lastly, the sixth scenario focused on an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) response, necessitating the ex*****on of a Render Safe Procedure (RSP), submission of an SMS ERI IED Recovery, and conducting a thorough investigation.

These activities aimed to provide graduating cadets with practical experience in managing real-world incidents they may encounter in their future roles, offering valuable insights and strategies for effective incident management.

Crime Scene Investigation (CSI), Dragnet Operation, and Intelligence Operation

Under the supervision of PLTCOL APOLINARIO L PALOMENO, personnels of QCPS responded to a crime scene infront of the gymnasium regarding a shooting incident. The personnels carefully looked into the crime scene. PLTCOL PALOMENO said that close attention to every detail, gathering evidence systematically is critical. He also emphasize the roles of first responders, investigator on case and the SOCO.

In relation to the shooting incident, we were tasked to have a Dragnet Operation targeting suspects fleeing on a motorcycle. A Dragnet Operation is strategically designed to seal off potential escape routes from the crime scene. By establishing a roadblock near the PNPA gymnasium we were able to intercept and apprehend the two suspects preventing their escape.

In the evening we also conducted a Surveillance Operation regarding an information received by the station. The intelligence indicated that an individual known as "Kabayo" was involved in the illicit sale of drugs particularly "shabu" within Barangay Poblacion, Silang, Cavite. Surveillance operation must have a strategic planning to monitor and prevent criminal activities. Through covert surveillance they gather crucial intelligence. However, it's vital to balance security with privacy rights in order to prevent getting burnout.

Our day began with a focus on improving professionalism among our police personnel. Led by PEMS Remar Vincent T Malapad - CESPO we carried out a Daily PNP Personnel Accounting session. It is to make sure everyone is present and they understood the importance of being professional in their work, which helps us do our jobs better. Next was a session called Police Information and Continuing Education (PICE), where we talked about the importance of dressing appropriately. This might seem small, but it's a big deal for us because how we present ourselves reflects on the entire police force.

In the afternoon, some of our team including myself participated as cadet officers in the Testimonial Parade and Review for PMGEN RUDOLPH B DIMAS - TDPL. It was a way for us to show respect and appreciation for his leadership. After the event, we returned to our station.

Before wrapping up the day, under the guidance of PLTCOL JOSEPH LESTER C LIDEM - COP QUEZON CCPS and PCPT MARVIN JORDAN O LAROYA - Chief, Operations Section. We conducted a checkpoint operation in front of the PNPA Gymnasium. This was part of our efforts to fight crime and keep our community safe.

Today is the start of Third Phase of the Cadet Attachment Program. 42 police cadets including myself were assigned to the Quezon Component City Police Station. PLTCOL JOSEPH LESTER CASABAL LIDEM was chosen to be the Chief of Police of our station.

Our task for today is to transform the Old Moot Court into a Police Station. We split up tasks like cleaning and organizing to make sure everything ran smoothly. Each cadet took on a specific role simulating real police station positions. I was assigned as intel operative under our section chief PLT LENNOX LLOYD T BACAL. We practiced different police station activities throughout the day, like giving orders, managing equipment, handling records, and carrying out patrols and checkpoints.

These exercises helped us apply what we've learned and gain practical skills for real-life situations, making us better prepared to serve our communities as police officers in the future.
