BRIDAL TANK – Resplendent in white gowns and carrying bouquets of red and white roses, six brides wait inside an M113 armored personnel carrier (APC), which was going to take them to the wedding venue at the headquarters of the Fourth Mechanized Infantry Battalion in Barangay Nangka, Balo-I, Lanao del Norte, on Saturday, December 12.

BALO-I, Lanao del Norte – No, they were not going to the battlefield. They were going to their wedding.
Six brides drew attention here when they rode an M113 armored personnel carrier (APC) – and not a bridal car – to their wedding on Saturday at the headquarters of the Fourth Mechanized Infantry Battalion (4th MIB) in Barangay Nangka here.
Resplendent in their white gowns and carrying bouquets of red and white roses, the brides filed into the cramped APC on their way to the 4th MIB’s multi-purpose hall where their grooms were waiting.
A pair of Army sentries saluted them before they left for the wedding venue.
