    I found my first true love in a Sari Sari store on Magsaysay back in 1963. Her name is Fely Baroy and came from San Fernando City. I will always wonder what happened to her.

    Kevin you posted a pic of a R.P. bank note. It does bring back memories, but while I was stationed at Cubi Point during '63-'65 and again from '67-70 we used Military Pay Certificates (MPC). To be caught with greenbacks was a crime and several people found out the hard way.

    Would you know if the Dela Paz Compound and Paradice Beach are still in operation? My wife and 1year old daughter lived there until we got base housing in '68.

    I would love to view any pics you have that you are willing to share.

Subic/Olongapo 1990-91

I'm doing some research and would appreciate feedback from those who were station dito at Cubi or SRF in 1990-91. Personally, I was there in the early 80's so much of my recollection is irrelevant for what I am looking for.  1. Bars and hotelsWhat memorable bars and hotels were around at that time? I remember a few from my time, but I'm sure they were long gone. 2. The JungleWas this still a thing in 90-91? Anyone remember bars from there? 3. SR FenceWhen did the fencing go up on the bridge…

I am living in Angeles City and have lived here for about 7 years.There have been many many changes BUT...

He is Japanese American and he runs a company making solenoids.There is almost nothing in Olongapo proper that is fun entertainment wise.Barrio Barretto still has many bars,…
