August 27, 2012. This day is dedicated to our Filipino heroes that gave up their lives to protect and serve our country. Observed on the last Monday of August, the day marks the Cry of Pugad Lawin by the Katipunan, led by its Supremo Andrés Bonifacio, which marked the beginning of the Philippine Revolution.
We should also pay respect to those military and navy officers whom have sacrificed their lives battling for peace in our country.
Yeeey. I know several Filipinos are celebrating this day mostly because it is a holiday. Wew. Another long weekend for students and workers.
Lets have a little fun. Answer this question. How will you celebrate National Heroes day? Post your answers as comments.
