I have a hard time believing this may actually happen. They aren't kidding about the Pacific focus. Would I go? Sure!
As long as I can stay at the Clark Holiday Inn and get $12 massages before I go flying I'll go back. And not eat balut again.
When I made a couple of port calls into Subic in 09, a couple of FEDEX pilots told me that FEDEX was pulling out and moving to China. FEDEX was about the only regular traffic into Subic International (former Cubi Point NAS)
The Chinese were building a ship building/repair facility in Subic Bay but they had about 15 ships anchored in the bay with nothing to do.
I could envision the Philippine Gov't starting to look at the dollars that a US military presence can bring and consider it.

Well, I surely hope that Subic never returns to what it was in days gone by...basically a "free fire zone" for all things. That said, it would be nice to find out that all of the "SH flight suit tailors" and incredible wood model makers...shit-hot belt buckle makers, golf, tennis, scuba, Cubi Dogs, Cubi Specials (it's a drink, butthead...), ice cold San Miguels, yadda yadda yadda...were available again. Not to mention an Officers' Club where the motto remains: "TAIYNWIYQ": "The answer is yes...now what is your question?"
Well, they were before squadron bowling shirts and squadron jammies. Based on what I see at Hook Reunions...those seem to be the norm. Which is cool...today.SH flight suits? What's that?
Thanks for clearing that up.
Wonder if they'd reopen the East End club. (It made New Pauline's look downright sophisticated.)
The inner JO was obviously completely destroyed by the lobotomy & spine removal in this one.....pity what a command tour can do.....
"I had my fun but fuck you, you can't have any."
Sounds about right in today's day and age.
