Recaredo A. Sarmiento II was a retired Filipino police officer who served as the inaugural Chief of the Philippine National Police from July 8, 1994, until December 15, 1997.
Career
[edit]Graduate of Philippine Military Academy class of 1966, Sarmiento served as commander of Special Action Force from June 6, 1992, until January 2, 1994,[1] and National Capital Region Command.[2] He became PNP chief in 1994, surpassing the older batches of class '61 to '65.[3] But due to seniority dominance in the hierarchy, some columinists considered Sarmiento's leadership as a failure, even though he finished his term until 1997.[4]
Politics
[edit]Sarmiento supported Ping Lacson's presidential campaigns, first in 2004,[5] and also in 2022. In 2004, he served as provincial chairman of Ping Lacson for President Movement in Quezon.[6]
