- Balangiga Massacre and Leyte Landing
Two spectacular events in Leyte-Samar history. Two victories in two different wars. Two legacies that contradict each other. Two contrasting lessons for the promotion of nationalism among Filipinos in particular and peace education and development in general. This site provides a different Filipino perspective of viewing the Balangiga Massacre and the Leyte Landing events.

- Fred Steinbroner's World War II Pictures in Northern Philippines
In the northern Philippines, in August 1945, before the Japs surrendered, there was a cease fire a few days after the atomic bomb was dropped.
The minute the cease fire took place, before the surrender,
a team of about 10 unarmed enlisted men, Jesse White and I included, were ordered to go openly, behind the lines to check out what was going on.

- Ghost Soldiers
This book is a vivid narrative of the men of New Mexico's 200th and 515th Coast Artillery (AA) units who fought in WWII and Vietnam (and Korea too). In WWII they were the first unit to fire on the enemy in the Philippines and the last organized unit to lay down their arms. The 200th and 515 Coast Artillery units were from the New Mexico National Guard, which had a heavy representation of Hispanic officers and enlisted men.
