Your Philippines Adventure is awesome Joe & Gift! Thanks for taking us along 😊
Our pleasure!
Great show guy's! Stay cool 😎 kind and generous!
Thank you 🙏
Thanks for the tour of Bataan Memorial and Subic Bay. So you and company have a good time there. Stay safe
Our pleasure!
Thank you for the history tour, love your videos.
What you said about about the young people today or activists not respecting the flag of the U.S. or in my case Australia and in many Western countries is so unfortunately true. It really grinds my gears that people died for our freedoms
I've been to quite a few of these ww2 memorials all over the pacific. I'm american and live in okinawa and one day i was walking down the street next to my condo and i see a bus load of us marines get off and walk up a steep staircase. I got curious and googled the place they went to. come to find out its a place called sugarloaf and was what the japanese called the shuri line. It was the first major resistance the americans met when they overtook the main island in okinawa. I then found a website and discovered this place i can see from my outside patio had over 3000 us marine casualties. One marine received a metal of honor on this hill and his story blew me away. To this day they're still disposing of bombs that are uncovered. As a matter of fact they're blowing up some ww2 bombs today out in the ocean. Some are really big and make the whole building shake. Even though it was over 80 years ago the sound of bombs going off is still happening here.
Thanks for sharing, I was on Oki for two tours totaling 9.5 years, love that island. I have personally found ordinance while scuba diving there. Lile you mentioned they find stuff all the time when doing digs for construction
Thank you 🙏 for sharing.
Thank you very much for sharing take care great video love you2
Thank you 🙏
Wow, an expensive hotel...Nice but Holy Cow...
Good trips to the sites...Bataan Memorial and Subic are areas I've visited before...
Luzon is the island we'll be building on but further west on the coast (near Dagupan)...
Glad you're all feeling better and getting out and about...
🙏🙏🙏
👍😎👍
Thanks 4 watching! ABC is very expensive indeed
Thank you 🙏
That was a throwback in time for me as being a navy squid from 82-86 stationed on the west coast and subic being one of our stops I almost found myself getting a little emotional... Thanks for another great video and always keeping me humble...
Thank you 🙏 for your Service.
Excellent collaboration. Focus on Asia seems like a pretty cool dude. Thank you both for your service!
I am alright LOL Thanks 4 the kind words
Thank you 🙏
Nice video. I was stationed at Clark Air Base during the Mt Pinatubo eruption. I evacuated to Subic and then on to Cebu after the eruption. The eruption and the following two weeks was an experience I’ll never forget. Crazy time, but loved my assignment at Clark Air Base, Nov 88 - Jun 91. Cheers, Tim
Thank you 🙏 for your Service.
Olongapo in the 80s like Pattaya .Good times.
Great video touching on the history of Subic and Clark. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Fascinating
Thank you Joe & Gift. Very smart hotel.
Our pleasure!
I was fortunate to have worked with two Bataan Death March Survivor's yr. 1985 (Ft. Bliss). Then in 1987 I got a US Contracting Job located in Capas, Tarlac (Camp O'Donnell). The location of where my two co-workers march to. This is my first time seeing the Bataan Monument. Thanks for sharing. Foreigner Joe & FOCUS on ASIA.
Thanks 4 watching, there are a bunch of other memorials for the march around the Tarlac area, I have a few videos to include the Cabanatuan memorial which is another nice one to visit
Our pleasure!
Hey Joe awesome video thanks for taking us along. You retired in Thailand for the same reasons as me, I cannot stomach what is going on in the U.S. today, how things have changed. Enough said political, have fun. Safe travels
Thank you 🙏
I remember the Pinatubo explosion. I’d just got home from Kuwait a month or so before after Desert Storm. 1991 was a significant year in my life.
Thanks for sharing such important historic events Joe (and JR). One that renews one's patriotism and the other shows how fragile this earth could be. Thanks again guys!
Our pleasure!
Phillipines still on my bucket list. Thank you Joe and Gift 👍😎🙏
C'mon over Mitch, the water is warm LOL Be happy to take you around
Definitely a must see.
Thank you guys, awesome. educational as well.
Glad you enjoyed it!
beautifull and so nice , great video
Thank you 🙏
Good to see JR( mr pork) better and Cecilia, he tells good account of recent history, you could make a rap video in that blue-lit bathroom😂✌🏿
Thanks Paul
😊
An interesting piece for you , the original airport control tower from the thirties is now a restaurant and the old runway a main street in Manila ..
Thank you 🙏 for sharing.
Thanks for sharing...Brings back memories. I was stationed on 2 Destroyers out of Yokosuka 1988-'92 and visited Subic so many times. We were there after the eruption and there was ash everywhere. Bulldozers were plowing off the athletic fields with huge piles of ash wherever you looked. Many buildings on base and even more off base, were collapsed from the weight of the ash (it also rained during the eruption which made the wet ash extremely heavy). Many of the bars out in town were closed or just partially open and you literally had to wipe ash off of your bear bottle before you could drink. My final visit prior to the base closing, was April 1992. Sadly, it was never the same after the eruption.
Thank you 🙏 for your Service.
Nice upload and reminder of some of the American history over there. Baguio next? Looking forward to it.
Thank you 🙏 we plan on visiting Baguio next.
Great video Joe😊 We Iike going to Subic. You had a good tour guide. Did you get a chance to go to Veterans Memorial Cemetery,? Not very far from your hotel. Hope u enjoyed your trip to Philippines. Be safe
Thank you 🙏 Unfortunately not, we will visit there next time.
Most of the noise i remember in the Philippines was chickens. Use to land at Clark and was only in Subic for 1 day
I noticed how gifts English skills have gotten so much better over the years. I’ve watched you on these video channel good for her.
Thank you! 😃
Thanks for the video Joe! Always ask the managers or owners first....the Security or Mall cops are just on a power trip! Cheers!
Found this on Wikipedia: "The Bataan Death March[a] was the forcible transfer by the Imperial Japanese Army of 75,000[1] American and Filipino prisoners of war (POW) from the municipalities of Bagac and Mariveles on the Bataan Peninsula to Camp O'Donnell via San Fernando.
The transfer began on 9 April 1942 after the three-month Battle of Bataan in the Philippines during World War II. The total distance marched from Mariveles to San Fernando and from the Capas Train Station to various camps was 65 miles (105 km). Sources also report widely differing prisoner of war casualties prior to reaching Camp O'Donnell: from 5,000 to 18,000 Filipino deaths and 500 to 650 American deaths during the march.
The march was characterized by severe physical abuse and wanton killings. If an American or Filipino POW was caught on the ground or fell, he would be instantly shot. After the war, the Japanese commander, General Masaharu Homma and two of his officers, Major General Yoshitaka Kawane and Colonel Kurataro Hirano, were tried by United States military commissions for war crimes and sentenced to death on charges of failing to prevent their subordinates from committing atrocities. Homma was executed in 1946, while Kawane and Hirano were executed in 1949."
Thanks for sharing the info, my memory is not that bad after all LOL Pretty close on everything
Thank you 🙏 for the info.
Joe u and gift come here to Florida stay with Ely and I one day
Thank you 🙏 for the invite.
I was stationed at Cubic Point 1974-1975. We, a P3 Orion Sub chaser squadron had different locations of operations in that time.
Things have changed quite dramatically since as even in Thailand has changed considerably since we were at the Thai airbase Utapao outside Pattaya on that same det.
I watch all your vids as we as Chuck n Page, very enjoyable to watch genuine people.
Thank you 🙏 for your Service.
Sir you come visit iloilo city
Not this trip, maybe next time.
Nice video. Did you say your room was over $200 USD. , is that not alot for the Phillipines? Looked very nice.
$220 and yes definitely expensive.
Joe, I totally agree with you and understand how you feel. In 2018 we went to Normandy France, US Cemetery next to Omaha Beach. The sacrifice those young soldiers made for world freedom brought tears to me. Then you watch a professional athlete take a knee before a game when the National Anthem is played is heartbreaking. I’m not trying to be political it’s just my experience. Good luck, keep up the good work.
🙏
I been inside the cross. Kind of sad what happened.
Sad indeed!
Bsugio or Panglao are nice places to go
As an American, I refuse to allow my freedoms be subjugated by PC. Live free and speak freely! ✌
Aside from Subic Bay and MT Samat the other US military stations in the Philippines are Clark airbase, Corregidor island, Fort McKinley, and Camp John hay in Baguio city.
Thank you 🙏 for sharing.
@@thaigirlgiftforeignerjoe7774 those are the major US military bases in the Philippines but now it is already a tourist attractions.
Damn Joe, you and Gift are balling out with that room...nicest room I've seen in a long time....😮❤
the prices at the royals in us$?
Great to see you there in Bataan Joe that is a place everyone should visit to be reminded of what took place there .. 🙏🙏 You probably won't get to visit the war cemetery in Manila which contains over 17000 Americans and the wall has over 36000 names of the missing it is really something to see it is immaculate . Manila was nearly completely destroyed during the war , you would not know it now ..
Next time perhaps we will make it to Manila.
Have you seen Palawan?
No we haven’t.
Joe ( Jamie Logan) does a great video on Corregidor .
I'll check it out!
Everybody has to stand up for freedom and defeat the fascists
👍🙂🙏
🙏
Not Grey Goose 😂😂
😂

Can't put a toilet in a glass enclosed bathroom.
ever stayed at a hilton in asia?
Checkout some of those Hollywood mansion tours.
Yes, when the senators of the P.I. voted out the US military the CCP came and took the Spratly Islands from them. I hope they learned their lesson. Now the US military has a limited presence in the Philippines. Better late than never. Great vlog guys!
Thanks 4 watching!
Thank you 🙏
Sorry for the scam you experience for your breakfast. Make sure you count every piece of carry-on luggage when it goes through the x-ray(s) at the airport!
I’m not sure if it was a scam or just a misunderstanding.
Thailand to Philippines is definitely a downgrade in terms of infrastructure…and food. The friendliest people you’ll ever meet though!
The people are very friendly indeed.
Political: been watching you for a couple of years.. So here are a couple of comments from a Marine Veteran 1966-70.. My generation also burned the flag, which was okay for me, as they were protesting a war that even the people in power knew was not win-able. 50,000 American died for ? And why were we in Iraq? Americans burning the flag are protesting American Gov. actions, the people flying the confederate flag in the capitol want to destroy America as we know it.. Seems clear to me who is the greater danger, thinking with your small head or large head..
First, Thank you 🙏 for your Service. Now, you have a right to your opinion just as I have a right to mine as long as it is respectful. If I am ever invited into your home, I would not disrespect you. You are now in my home, so I would appreciate the same respect “ thinking with your small head or large head..”. Have a nice day!
