@ Charles E. Webb Jr and the other two gentle men and Wena, Am a RU-vid subscriber to Philly in the Philippines if you have any old pictures he's doing a pictures/video project pls go to his video clip he explained it.

What was your favorite bar/club? I was there 83 till 86... I was always at the Fillmore East or Apple or The Dirty Bird... Cal Jams had an awesome vibe... I think I truly had the most amazing ToD there.... nothing beats ice cold San Miguel... or Mojo...or Bullfrog.... here's to the 80s in PI... loved it!

@@TheDarkestBride YES, the Filmore East opened when I was there 82,83 while in the Seabees for 9 months. I'd stop with friends at the Brown Fox for a beer and we usually went our separate ways but some of us ended up at the Filmore East. I'd get pretty drunk and dance with 2 hot girls working there a lot of times. But never tried hitting on them as I had a female friend. It was the best time in my life that never could be brought back to life.

Greg O I love you no shit 😂 buy your own #%^**^%drink 😂😂

Oh no that's not very nice but you are right.

I love you no shit! Buy me an air conditioned helicopter!

@ace toxic those were the days

I hear what you're saying I want to go back cuz I was stationed there for a while + 72 + 73. I first arrived there in 71 my last stop was in 74 I returned again in 1980 for vacation. I would have a hard time going back today as what you say is true all the old days are gone but I still have fond memories of the early seventies in Olongapo

You are right I wish that we took more times to see more places in the Philippines but we left in Philippines after 4 years and 8 months station in subic bay my husband that is. Anyway thank you so much for the video.

@FF Film Crew - "Thanks for the Warning I'm sure it wasn't all bad. But I'm sure its bitter sweet. We were young once and lots has happened between then and now as to show us were mortal. Who would have thought it would happen to us. I'm 49 and feel I've lived 10 Lives so far. Anyways good luck thanks for sharing. For those of us it does mean something. There are thousands of us who have thought about tracing the footsteps of our glory days many times between now and whenever then was." - You practically read my mind!! I still have dreams of my adventures overseas while in the US Navy from Jan. '79 to Sept. '82. Sometimes I dream that I'm back on the ships I served on and other times I dream I'm back in PI, Hong Kong, Tokyo, etc., etc., Still I'd love to go back to PI and see what's it like IN PERSON and not through videos or pictures....thanks for posting what I feel inside!!

You forgot about the 1000 islands in Pangasian there's also a nice resort in San Carlos city.

we did jest and the 7 steps about that time was early 81 spent about 45 days there

@ Gunny about 12 years ago my relatives that lives in manila took me there. And while we were about to enter a restaurant to eat. I saw eight or ten American leaving i think they're U.S. marines but they're wearing street clothing.

So do I ! 74-80...

So do I, 71-75

Same here 86-89 and before that USS Midway 82-85

@ Annabelle maybe you could revisit Olongapo one of these days. If you still have relatives/families maybe they could take you there. When you plan to go there maybe catch a plane that goes to Clark international airport then ride grub to Subic Bay. Am a RU-vid subscriber to Philly in the Philippines maybe you could asked him which hotel you could stayed.

Hii,mam baka po may naka work mate ka nuon na Rhea Ang name? hinahanap ko po sya ,sya po Ang mother ko...

K Jenkins maybe you could revisit there. Maybe fly a plane that goes to Clark international airport. And probably catch a bus that goes to Subic Bay. When the bus reaches Subic Bay on your phone app of grub to the hotel where you have make a reservation.

semper fi. I arrived there in 85 and left in 87. Bravo company 3rd platoon cubic point marine barracks. I got to see the revolution first hand and also the so called workers strike in 86. Spent a week trying to get back onto the base. Got shot at a few times, several fights. Finally left olongapo, went to Manila, and got a military flight back to subic bay. Other than that it was good times. Looking back I think we pulled a MUC and a NUC out of that couple of months in early 86. The rest was red horse, chicken on a stick, vias tacos, and the bar scene.

@ David Jordan, Am a RU-vid subscriber to Philly in the Philippines. He's doing a pictures/videos project. Am just wondering if you and your lady could help him out. If even your relatives in the pilppinas. He's lives in Angles City married to a filpina. When you and your family plan to vacation to the pilppinas maybe you and your wife could meet him and his family.

@ Bob Sit, Do you have have filpino friends? If you do maybe you could joined them when they plan to vacation in the Philippines.

Many thanks for yur comment. Lots has changed here, but the people are still nice and friendly. Don’t sit and be depressed, hop on a plane and come to the Philippines. Besides the airfare you don’t have to spend a lot, hotels are fairly inexpensive and if you are staying an extended period they are usually willing to offer you a discount. You can eat three squares for about $10 a day, and for entertainment to can go to the beach or watch a free show at the mall, which they have several times a week.

watcher watcher the quonset huts are overgrown and the sky club is in ruins...so sad...but fond memories.

Hello sir what year have you been in olongapo ??

@@myonlyrose2177 First time was 1974, then in 1980 I joined the military sealift command and was on tanker ships home ported in subic, that was from 1981 to 1989

Did you ever met a girl in subic bay sir ?

@@myonlyrose2177 Oh boy did I ever, from Olongapo to the Barrio, to Subic city. Mercy, Josie, Beth, heck I can't remember all their names. I had an apartment on Murphy street, beautiful place.

We left for the states back in 86 as well! I was born in Olongapo City too - 1985.

D.B Varnadore Nice, it was a lot different back then. Yes, I remember the old days when I’m in Olongapo.

D.B Varnadore ...please share with yur friends, especially yur Navy buddies. Salamat po😀⚓️

Saan ka sa good? ameraisian din aq...

Auge Family thank you so much. Im happy you enjoyed it. Will try to post some more vids, its rainy season now and sometimes a bit hard to get around.

Danny I was there in1974, uss Richard s Edward DD950 I saw your ship there,it was parked right in front of us

Take DNA test sir, mostly ameraisians here in Phil ,have taken the DNA test..

We had a short timers partyat the Marmont hotel Barrio Baretto

Sir maybe you and your wife could buy a lot in Lipa City Batangas built your own custom get away city house. There's two former model homes that are for sale. If you two are interested contact a RU-vid channel called my pi dream. He's also a retired U.S. air force. When you and your wife plan to buy one of the former model home you have to make way for a car port including do some touch up inside of the house. The video clip of the two former model homes is how to make banana chips but that's half way of the video clip at the beginning of the video vlog is two model homes.

Thank you Kevin. I’m really happy you enjoyed it and that it brought back good memories. Hope you can return some day soon!

I see. Hope you had a nice visit, it’s lovely👍🏼✅.
