    1976, San Miguel, bar girls, mystery meat on a stick, 10 for $1 thai stick (if ya know ya know) and the rock cover bands on Magsaysay st. that were insanely good. Some memories will never fade.

    Many, many hours on the flight deck of the US Hancock with VF-51.between 1965 through 1967....always looked forward to going to olongapo for R and R ... great copycat bands who didn't speak english but sounded just like the originals. Monkey meat tasted sooo good going back to the ship after a fun day in the bars, falling in love for the day, or hour...lol
    So disappointing that the original town was bulldozed after the US was kicked out. Great memories. Thanks for posting the video.

    Naval shipboard life has been described as being in prison with the possibility of drowning but those visits to Subic made it all worthwhile.

      You missed out. If you would have traveled beyond Magsaysay blvd you would have fallen in love with the people and the beauty that the Philippines has to offer. I was a dependent and lived on base from 1973 to 1977 after which my father retired and started several businesses in Barrio Baretto. I left after I graduated from high school but I returned yearly until my folks left for good in 1985.

    I was in the navy but was on the east coast. I heard a lot about subic bay as a great libery port. Never got to go there. My two company commamders were Phillipinos. I never met any one from the Philippines in my life until i went into the Navy. The Philippines lost 2 million people in world war 2 fighting the Japanese. Looks like china is the problem now. The globalists built china up for their third great cataclysm. Let the sheeple sleep. Too complex for them. Like the pictures wish I could have went there.
