loved my time at clark in 1971 and 72. i last visited in 2014. i feel angeles was better when the military was there. they provided many jobs and most of the business around fields was filipino owned and much nicer that all the foreigner owners now. great video thanks
Thank you!!! so much memories.. happy and sad to watch this... Fields avenue was the place to be.. I recognize many if not all of the places around Clark. Great times!!!!
Thank you so much Brian for this Tribute. I remember some of those pictures you showed. It brought tears to my eyes and joy in my heart. I can never imagine how a few pictures of Clark and his surrounding can affect me personally. I also love The section of Wagner High School which I graduated High School from in 1988. Thank you, Thank you, Thank You.
I am also a Korean TH-cam creator living in angeles city. I was moved to see old photos of this place in your video. Thanks for letting me know the history of this city. Have a nice weekend~^^
Outstanding job. I was stationed at Clark, 1986-1988. Brings back so many good memories. My wife is filipina, met her while stationed there…she saw the video and cried. Good memories and a little homesick she said. Thank you, good job and great tribute!
Extremely well done video. Thank you for putting all that together for all of us to watch. Brings back a lot of memories. Makes it difficult to watch though when we cannot get back there right now. Still great to watch, thank you.
Thanks for taking the time to ask for and then compile all the great photographs Brian. Thanks to all our Military men and women all over the world, then and now, for their service.
Thank you so much for the memories. My x and I was stationed there from June 86 to August 1990. We were there for the earthquake in1990. My son was born at Clark Airbase hospital.
My father was United States Air Force. My family was stationed at Clark Air Force Base for 4 years. I was a young teen and it was the most incredible time of my life! I still have fond memories which I will have forever! I just stumbled across your videos. I was trying to explain the Barn Homes to my husband and saw your incredible video of the Barn Homes today. I remembered the marching field. I used to cross it daily on my way to the Teen Center. I remember wishing the family would be assigned to one of the Barn homes but we were assigned to one of the Box Homes. Do you remember the Box homes? I lived in walking distance to Wagner High School. Before getting housing on Clark AFB , we lived off the military base outside of Balabago. A compound named Villa Angela. I remember going through Balabago to get to school and back home. It was crazy!!! Immersed in culture. The best education and just a part of my daily life. I'm so grateful to have had this incredible experience living in the Philippines. I am so happy to see your videos! You have taken me back to a time of my life that was so curious, adventurous and happy. THANK YOU!!!
I was stationed at Clark AFB from 1980-1983 lived Clarkview subdivision. My first apartment was at Old Rosan Apartments. I looking forward to this premiere. Thanks for putting this together
I was a Subic Bay sailor but every chance i got when my ship the USS NIAGARA FALLS AFS-3 would do a port visit to Olongapo 89-92. I would travel up to CAB. The ladies loved the sailors who would visit there. Thanks Brian for this great video.
Tripple excellent. Really I joyed Essington the history. We all need to remember this. I fist came to AC 1990. Where I met my now wife of 31 years. She was evacuated to Manila when the eruption accoured. I decided to stay on and live in Angeles City on the bases that the air field would open again one day and volcano shouldn't erupt for another 100 years. Still living the same house Mabalacat 31 years on. Gary Hallard Australian. Retired.
Served 12 years out of a 21 year Air Force career between 1968-89. Like countless other GIs, married a Filipina, over 50 years happy together now. Best duty assignment ever.
Hey Brian my dear friend, This is just simply awesome and amazing. Thank you for doing this. You truly rock. Thank you Brian my dear friend for sharing this awesome video. Please stay safe and healthy, and God bless you, lot, Borges, Miguel, Hannah grace, Bing Bing, and the rest of your beautiful family. And may God bless your awesome pets.😊 😊 😊 ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
Thank you for all the treasured memories..It reminded me all the stores and school I went to..My son was born in Clark hospital.I was there in 1980 Marcos was still the President.
Thanks Brian! Brought back memories! I was a cop there from 85 to 91. Had to work in the aftermath of the eruption until I got out of there in October. Actually recognized 2 people in the photos. Miss that base a lot!! The latter part of the slides was my Era. Bars were familiar and most had that San Miguel mug sign outside them. Good times!! I believe that Third Eye is the bar you filmed on perimeter with the set of stairs that is ruins now, I believe you asked us on the video if anyone knew what it was. Take care!
We were there from 68 to 70. I was just a kid. Mom and us boys had to return to the states as Dad was being sent to Uban Thailand. Boy the second half of this brought back so many wonderful memories. I can't recall anything bad about living there except the occasional earthquake and typhoon season. I'm in my 60s now and Dad has been gone for a few years now and I miss him. Mom is still with us. Dad was an ATC and retired in 77 SMSGT. at Scott AFB. Dad was a 2 tour Army veteran of the Korean war and reenlisted in the military, this time Air Force right after i was born. He did two non combat tours during Nam for a total of 4 years during the war. He proudly displayed the CIB on his Air Force uniform even though it was an Army medal. I mias the Philippines but sadly I doubt I'll ever get a chance to return and revisit a portion of that part of my childhood.
Brian, thank you very much for spending the time putting this all together. The soundtrack was a superb match for the story told by the images. The last part, showing Mount Pinatubo erupting, brought tears to my eyes. We were among those families evacuated from Clark just after my graduation from middle school. We left with only as much as we could carry, but felt fortunate that we were provided safe passage. I still picture the tears in the eyes of our house girl and cook who were left there to suffer Lord knows what fate after the volcano and then the rains.
I'm not young Brian and I have many memories of them time it brought tears to my eyes when I watched your video we never asked the Philippines for anything we did it for the love we have for the Philippines and to this day Americans still love the Philippines and we would die for them today just like we did in the 40s
Wow, great video and it has been worth the wait. A guy I was stationed with in Korea was there when the volcano went up and told some stories about it. As a firefighter he was one of the last out. He said they were all hunkered down in the fire house with the vulcinoligists and the CG when a bolder landed on a building next door destroying it and that is when the general said time to go. That said while I was stationed in Korea I had heard stories of the Philippines as adult Disneyland so rather than taking my midtour back to the states I took a flight to the Philippines and worked my way to Anglese City. It was a drunken leave with so many women lol. That was in 1990 well before the eruption. (But I had many eruptions lol.) I regret spending all my time chasing women and not going out to see the country. One day I want to go there just to tour around and see the sights.
Brian I am not a Clark alumni . I just have to say this video is amazing . I hope all that sent you photos and videos feel the same way . I am humbled to see it through their eyes !
#ME TOO! I married mine in 1981. We married in Elco, but returned to the Philipines in 1983. I've been very happy in my life and with my wife. Love this country, and my wife!
Excellent !! Brian, your effort brings back many memories. I was in USAF (1974 - 1979), and had the chance to visit Clark in 1977. Thanks for doing this. PS. ...and now, after all these years I am in a nice LDR with a young lady from Mabalacat!! If these restriction ever end, I will make my return (already visited in 2018 and 2019) and see what's next for us. I really enjoy the content of your channel. Thank you so much!
Great pictures of Clark! My dad was a crewmember on a B17 of the 19th bomb wing arriving in late November or early December 1941. Their flight originated from somewhere in California stopping in Hawaii for refueling and then onward to Clark Field without any armaments to save weight. They were supposed to be armed with .50 cal. machine guns and bombs, and other supplies carried aboard US Navy ships, but then December 7th changed the world. The B17s were used to ferry women and children to Australia for several months. Dad spoke very little of that time. He told me they were ordered to fight on the ground until the last plane got off then surrender to the Japanese forces. He spent 39 months as a POW and then was a career Air Force man flying in and out of Clark as a flight engineer/navigator. Clark and the Philippine people meant very much to him.
Thanks so much Phill. I have never been to the Philippines. I enjoyed this immensely. I was in Japan and Taiwan when I was in the Air Force. Many of the things you just displayed reminded me of my days overseas. The music you picked seemed to be perfect for your video. I enjoy your videos with your walks. I now have a better picture of the area from before and now. Just loved the video. It brought tears to my eyes. Wonderful Phill…
My first visit to Clark AB was in 1986 when I transferred from my first ship to fly back to the states. I flew back the next year to wait at Subic for my second ship which was deployed. I remember Angeles being much different back then. The ship’s brow photo appears to be the USS Abraham Lincoln which participated in Operation Fiery Vigil. I would serve on that ship three years later. Thanks for the video and the views of the city I call home now.
Very well done video and it brought back some memorable times when I was first there in December of 1984 for 4 months as a civilian. Once again I returned in December of 1990 after working offshore China for 5 months and about 6 months before the volcano blew. My last visit was January 0f 1994 and I can tell that it has changed a hell of lot since there. Thanks to all the service people that went through there and thanks for the memories!
ONLY seen 2 mins..loving it all ready ..gotta go rewind start again thanks philly and those who sent in photos cheers from austarlia [was there in 1990 tourist]
Wow, Brian, that was fantastic!!! I have never been to the Philippines, but one day I hope to visit my subscribers there, etc. The streets in these pictures looked nicer, and not crowded like today. It must have been an even better time to be there back then. I can't help but wonder how many grown men, that were there back then, will watch this and get all teary eyed from the memories. It was one of those things that can really touch your heart. Great job, and thanks to all the folks that sent him the pictures of your past.
Fantastic! Fantastic! Fantastic! Love those Angeles City pics....O'briens and Fire Empire...man-o-man such memories there. If only I could see Nipa Hut and Didi's Pizza again. I was at Clark 80 -82 and loved every minute. Married my Asawa there in 1982 and we're moving back (Bacolod City) in November. Any youngsters out there who were in the school pics...if you were there when I was there, you probably saw me and my mates blowing stuff up outside your school as part of the "UXO danger" explosives presentation. Keep em coming Brian.
Thanks Brain. I spent 10 years in and around Clark,starting 1965. I forget sometimes all the American families that were there also, Bring back some many memories, thanks again for bringing me back once again.
Thanks for all you do. My assignments at Clark Air Base: 3rd Aircraft Generation Squadron 1976 - 1977 and second tour 1983 - 1986. . My wife and I toured the former Clark Air Base in 2018 and 2019, hope to see it again in the future.
Greatest port in the world. Was there on the way 2 desert storm in 91 before the Pinatubo eruption. The landscape looked like the moon when we stopped on the way home after the eruption. Beautiful country and people
Really nice pictures! I was a military brat and spent my elementary and junior high school years in Clark. I was one of the kids who greeted the U.S. military members returning from captivity as POWs in the Vietnam War. Then I was a non-commissioned officer (NCO) in Andersen Air Force Base, Guam who received the evacuees from Clark when Mount Pinatubo erupted in 1991. And I last visited Clark in 2016, that time having retired from active duty many years ago.
Brian thanks for taking the time to put all those photos together, thanks to all who contributed. I have spent a reasonable amount of time in Angeles in the last decade, before Covid. I often go for a ride around the base so I was able to recognize some of the landmarks in the pictures.
Great video. It's a shame our education system here in the USA doesn't teach any of this any longer! Thank you for taking the time to do this. I wasn't around at that time but if not for our dedicated soldiers I might not be around today!
Excellent video and beautiful choice of music, thanks and memories that will never fade, we left from Clark air base in 1975 but my husband was stationed in Subic bay although we shopped at the Clark commissary and PX all the time. Waiting for your Subic vid.
When I was stationed in the UK, in the mid-1970s, one of the sergeants had just transferred in from Clark AFB. Oh, the stories he had to tell! I wished I could have been stationed there, too.
Great job Brian, such nice to see the hospital when it was in operation. I know someone who was station there when I worked my first full time aviation job. I bet it brought back a lot of memories for people. Thanks you did a great job on this project.
Oh, thank you so much for the old Clark Air Force Base. I hope you will get more of the old pictures of people and Clark. You are the best! Hopefully the Marshall E Kramer and the King family see the video.
Days gone, happy times, and the end of the happy times. I can only imagine how great it must have been to be a child of the people in uniform there. Get to grow up in an exotic and beautiful country like the Philippines... Great storytelling, Philly - job well done 🤗
I was at Clark with my wife oldest son and daughter in 1974-1975. Lived out in Villa Angela. Was a airfreight guy. Both my wife and I worked through Operation Baby lift and during the evacuation of Vietnam. Loved the folks we met over there. It took a bit of getting used to in the weeks before my wife and kids got there. The barracks had no ac, just louvered outer walls. It was a beautiful base. Left many good friends there when my tour was finished.
THANKS BRIAN > Brings back many great memories >>Stationed Philippines 1982-1986 ...My bags are already packed & ready to return to CEBU as soon as Philippines opens again.
Exceptional editing and scoring, Brian... Thanks for taking the time to make this tribute to Clark Field. My In-Laws of my first wife both served at Clark Air Base from 1956-1971, so I especially enjoyed seeing the views from their perspective
When i seen them towing the drydock to Guam. That's when i knew our days was numbered. By Far Hands down. The best liberty port in SEA (South East ASIA)
Thanks you to everyone in the military who served and thanks Brian for such a nice tribute video 🇺🇸 🇵🇭

Agreed, the best times when the military was there! Remember DMZ bar ;-) they really helped the local economy.
A city is always better when the military is there.
Me agree too

Oh, and seeing the hospital really got to me, my oldest daughter was born there in June 1990, the year before Pinatubo erupted. Thanks!
Excellent job Brian. I bet this brought a lot of memories back for those who served at Clark.
*Epic From All Angles,thanks for sharing WorldClass video Brian* 👍🇺🇲
Extremely well done video. Thank you for putting all that together for all of us to watch. Brings back a lot of memories. Makes it difficult to watch though when we cannot get back there right now. Still great to watch, thank you.

This is the best video I've ever seen on TH-cam. Well done. I will send this to my Father who was there in all the time
Well done Mr. Brian, so many memories in one video.
Thanks Brian! Brought back memories! I was a cop there from 85 to 91. Had to work in the aftermath of the eruption until I got out of there in October. Actually recognized 2 people in the photos.

My first visit to Clark AB was in 1986 when I transferred from my first ship to fly back to the states. I flew back the next year to wait at Subic for my second ship which was deployed.

Very well done video and it brought back some memorable times when I was first there in December of 1984 for 4 months as a civilian. Once again I returned in December of 1990 after working offshore China for 5 months and about 6 months before the volcano blew. My last visit was January 0f 1994 and I can tell that it has changed a hell of lot since there. Thanks to all the service people that went through there and thanks for the memories!
Wonderful wonderful video. Thank you very much.

Thanks for the memories. I was there between 1957-59. I have such good memories of my teen years there.
Brian, thanks for posting some of my pictures..Great 👍 job.
Thank you for sending them to me to use.
great job on the pictures a picture is worth a thoundsand words
Really nice pictures! I was a military brat and spent my elementary and junior high school years in Clark. I was one of the kids who greeted the U.S. military members returning from captivity as POWs in the Vietnam War. Then I was a non-commissioned officer (NCO) in Andersen Air Force Base, Guam who received the evacuees from Clark when Mount Pinatubo erupted in 1991. And I last visited Clark in 2016, that time having retired from active duty many years ago.
Bravo ! Bravo ! Outstanding video . Thank you brian for very good video .
Brian thanks for taking the time to put all those photos together, thanks to all who contributed. I have spent a reasonable amount of time in Angeles in the last decade, before Covid. I often go for a ride around the base so I was able to recognize some of the landmarks in the pictures.
Great video. It's a shame our education system here in the USA doesn't teach any of this any longer! Thank you for taking the time to do this. I wasn't around at that time but if not for our dedicated soldiers I might not be around today!
This was great! Thank you Brian and all who contributed.
What an awesome presentation!! Thank you
Excellent video and beautiful choice of music, thanks and memories that will never fade, we left from Clark air base in 1975 but my husband was stationed in Subic bay although we shopped at the Clark commissary and PX all the time. Waiting for your Subic vid.
Wow Excellent video
I miss the Philippines
Thank you
great video Brian thamks for showing how it was
When I was stationed in the UK, in the mid-1970s, one of the sergeants had just transferred in from Clark AFB. Oh, the stories he had to tell! I wished I could have been stationed there, too.
Great job Brian, such nice to see the hospital when it was in operation. I know someone who was station there when I worked my first full time aviation job. I bet it brought back a lot of memories for people. Thanks you did a great job on this project.
Nice job brings back memories. I was there 82-86 than 89-91
Oh, thank you so much for the old Clark Air Force Base. I hope you will get more of the old pictures of people and Clark. You are the best! Hopefully the Marshall E Kramer and the King family see the video.
Days gone, happy times, and the end of the happy times. I can only imagine how great it must have been to be a child of the people in uniform there. Get to grow up in an exotic and beautiful country like the Philippines... Great storytelling, Philly - job well done 🤗
I was at Clark with my wife oldest son and daughter in 1974-1975. Lived out in Villa Angela. Was a airfreight guy. Both my wife and I worked through Operation Baby lift and during the evacuation of Vietnam. Loved the folks we met over there. It took a bit of getting used to in the weeks before my wife and kids got there. The barracks had no ac, just louvered outer walls. It was a beautiful base. Left many good friends there when my tour was finished.
THANKS BRIAN > Brings back many great memories >>Stationed Philippines 1982-1986 ...My bags are already packed & ready to return to CEBU as soon as Philippines opens again.
Exceptional editing and scoring, Brian... Thanks for taking the time to make this tribute to Clark Field. My In-Laws of my first wife both served at Clark Air Base from 1956-1971, so I especially enjoyed seeing the views from their perspective
Hearing the U.S. turning over Clark Air Base to the Philippine government was the saddest day in Philippines history.
When i seen them towing the drydock to Guam. That's when i knew our days was numbered. By Far Hands down. The best liberty port in SEA (South East ASIA)
Absolutely outstanding great editing and following a time line
Wonderful Wonderful Wonderful well done my friend.
A blast from the past , thank you brain for the memories.
