“I’ll talk to her if she would like to be a reservist, and of so it should be in the Army, ha-ha,” Lorenzana, a retired Army major general, told reporters.
Reservists are commissioned to provide the base for the expansion of the Armed Forces of the Philippines in the event of war, invasion or rebellion; to help in relief and rescue operations during disasters or calamities; to assist in socioeconomic development; and to help in the operation and maintenance of essential government or private services in the furtherance of the mission.
Lorenzana said a visit from Gray would be welcome.

Gray, 24, won the Miss Universe crown in Bangkok on Dec. 17, besting the candidates from 93 other countries.
She is the fourth Filipina to win the Miss Universe title after Gloria Diaz in 1969, Margarita Moran in 1973 and Pia Wurtzbach in 2015.
