BUREAU 5: THE ACADEMY YEARS - VOLUME I - THE FIRST SALUTE
          
          Five young cadets enter the Philippine Police Academy with different dreams, different backgrounds, and one shared goal – to become policemen worthy of serving the country. 
          
          Before Bureau 5 became legends, they were simply five freshmen trying to survive Academy life, impossible drills, endless recitations, and the unforgettable chaos of Dorm Seven. 
          
          The journey begins with the first salute. 
          
          Bureau 5: The Academy Years Volume I: The First Salute is now available.
