The armed revolutionary movement in Caraga started in the year 1975 in Agusan del Norte, it spread and is currently rooted in a large percent of the towns and cities in the four provinces. The people’s revolutionary armed struggle has gone through many twists and turns throughout its 35 years history. It achieved many victories and faced problems in its construction and current status.

The failures, problems, even the victories achieved were nourished with the blood and lives of good and great youthful Red Fighters of the NPA, Party cadres and masses who gave their lives to the revolution. Their revolutionary contribution cannot be denied, thier martyrdom an unshakeable monument of tHE struggle in Caraga that should be spread, praised and proclaimed, and followed.
