Sulu encounter team leaders get Gold Cross Nov. 20, 2014 Larawan ng magigiting na mandirigma ng 1st Scout Ranger Company na sina 1st Lt Dante "Sprite" Espiritu at ang sugatang si 1st Lt Michael Asistores. Dahil sa naipakitang kabayanihan sa pakikipaglaban na kung saan ay wala syang iniwang kahit isang kasamahang sugatan, inirerekomenda ng kanyang Battalion Commander na si Lt Col Eugenio Boquio si Sprite sa award na Distinguished Conduct Star, pangalawa sa Medal for Valor award. Si Sprite ay ipinagmamalaking produkto ng ROTC at ng Officer Preparatory Course. Dati syang ROTC Commander sa Pagadian City. Basta nag-ROTC, astig na lider! Walang iwanan! - Lt.
