There is probably no greater symbol of the United States' global dominance and reach in the 20th century than Subic Bay in the Philippines. From its' inception as a Spanish Naval Base, to it's acquisition by the United States as part of the 1898 Treaty Of Paris, and through the turbulent years of the Philippine Insurrection, the second World War, the eventual return of sovereignty of the Philippines to the Filipino nation and through the Korean, Vietnam wars and the conflict of Desert Storm Subic Bay, and more specifically the U.S. Naval Station, looms large in historical lore and also to some degree through the screen. During the nearly 100-year history of the U.S. Naval Station at Subic Bay, Philippines, thousands of American sailors and marines made port calls at this major ship-repair, supply, and rest and recreation base.
