Miss Universe Philippines 2023 Michelle Dee achieved another milestone after completing her Basic Citizen’s Military Training under the Philippine Air Force (PAF).
The 28-year-old beauty queen took to social media to share the good news with photos of her during her training and graduation ceremony at the PAF Villamor Air Base.
“It’s always been a goal of mine to become a civilian reservist, which for me is one of the highest forms of love for your country! If you’re waiting for a sign – this is it.” Dee wrote in her post, encouraging others to become civilian reservists.
“Sgt. Michelle Marquez Dee at your service!”, she added, taking pride in her newest achievement.
Michelle announced her official enlistment to Basic Citizen’s Military Training to become a PAF reservist last July 2023.
Dee is set to represent the Philippines in the upcoming Miss Universe 2023 pageant which will take place in El Salvador.
