Long time ago by Marcos (late 70’s early 80’s) we have been there for about 20 years plus now (again). We are building new bases. America has a long history with them. Our first military action outside of US Soil by the US Calvary. (Spanish American War). Who can name the former President that Fought with the Calvary in the Philippines? We liberated them twice. There government is based on ours, right down to democratic corruption (kek). We will never be gone from there, so many Americans live there with US Hospitals etc….

Good Run for the Rosevelt family American lesser commanders of the American Navy. Who was in charge of the Navy ?)

USofA turned it to the Philippine people in the 1890’s after the war. We all should know the stories of WWII.
