    I am the eldest son of Major Maximo P Young (endearingly called by us, his children, as Daddy Max), who was featured in the MARCH OF THE VALIANT. At that time, when he was assigned to be part of the Filipino contingent in the KOREAN WAR, (the PHILIPPINE EXPEDITIONARY FORCE TO KOREA, with the 10th BCT), he was a FIRST SERGEANT. He was decorated and conferred the highest military merit medal by the South Korean government with the TAEGEUK AWARD on July 27, 2016 for his heroic feat in the BATTLE OF MIUDONG (MURI), which was dubbed as the first battle won by Filipino soldiers in a foreign soil. Aside from the BATTLE OF MIUDONG, my Daddy Max also fought in the BATTLE OF YULDONG, where it was proudly announced that a battalion of about 1,000 soldiers vanquished a militia of 40,000 Chinese communists forces. Unfortunately, he passed away on January 29, 2022 at age 99. We are all proud of him as hero not only in the KOREAN War but also in the SECOND WORLD WAR where the US government then awarded him a SILVER STAR MEDAL for his heroic feats!

      I salute your Dad for his bravery, courage and integrity of being a Filipino soldier who volunteered to fought for the Korean war. His heroism will always be remembered not only by the Koreans but also for the Filipino people and to the next generation. I am really glad that this documentary exists because it will show today to the world how Filipinos heroism were such a remarkable one. May his soul rest in peace in heaven in the hands of our Almighty God and in Jesus Christ. Amen.

      I hope your journey in the RAF is going well. I'm also British Filipino (British citizen only, at the moment), and have served in the British army when I was younger. My Lola's cousin survived the Bataan death march, then escaped and returned to his unit 3 days after arriving at the P.O.W. Camp. My Lolo delivered supplies to the allies during ww2. My great grandfather was a spitfire pilot from 1938-1946, serving in South East England (Dunkirk and battle of britain), and in Burma, was captured by the Japanese, and escaped. A lot of my British family were ex forces.

It is heartbreaking indeed that despite the heroism of the filipino soldiers efforts to freed South Korea and yet Filipinos could not visit their country w/o applying for their visa when their previous enemies can go in and out visa free today.

    In case it was confusing to hear that Lt. Gonzales was "married to the First Lady" that was because the one who filled the role of First Lady was not President Quirino's wife, but his daughter. President Quirino's wife and three of his children were killed by the Japanese during WW2. This shows how his act of sending his only remaining son and son-in-law to the Korean War was a heavy and very selfless decision.

    If I am not wrong, of all the nations sent, only the Phillipine troops were battle hardened ( after ww2, the Philippine army was still engaged in Communist insurgency up to the early and middle 50's ), though badly needed in the Philippines, it still sent troops to Korea. Pres Ramos was a West Point graduate, a Lieutenant then during the Korean War. It is also the culture of the Filipinos of not surrendering, they will use the last ammo and flee if need be to fight for another day.

    Ever notice that when you watch old veterans being interviewed. The Filipinos always have a smile remembering their experience whilst Western soldiers seem to be doing the opposite. Not to diminish their experience of course. Just an observation.
    It's probably to do with the fact that
    Filipinos or Asians have to deal with a different level of hardship in their day to day lives or is it genetics where our cultures see wars as more glorious or personal endeavors.

    Their act of heroism even in the foreign land was so priceless and incomparable.
    They were dedicating their lives in fighting for freedom.
    What a heroic acts ..
    Sacrifice a lot..risking life and everything.
    But then again..
    Thanks & salute to all soldiers who fight in korean war.
