I'm an avid student of history. I served as Curator of the Presl Museum, Office of the President of the Phils, in Malacanang. I'm very grateful to find your site tonite. Seeing those images of war especially relative to Leyte, my home province, are just hair raising. Thank you very much for such an invaluable effort to educate the present and coming generations.
