I remember Sol with the always easy-going smile. He was one of the four new brods of UPD'66 who came after us UPD'65
from the College of Law (the other three were Vivencio Deang, Manuel Ibañez and Rustico Zapanta). I believe they were all
recruited by Milton Mendoza, UPD'63, later GP, also from the College of Law.
Rest in peace, Brod Sol.
