I lived in Subic for several years as well (My dad was the XO there between 1969-1971)

Yep...I threw a few centavos off that bridge...I must admit, they were of such inconsequential sturdiness and value, I always thought they would float when they hit the water.

I lived up on Kalyaan Hill near the Officers Club, and when the wind blew the right way, I could smell the Olongapo River...not pleasant. My brother’s best friend’s father owned Pauline’s...a notorious place! (I never went there, wasn’t brave enough, but was told that was where they fed little duckling chicks to the crocodiles in a pit)

I am glad I never went to a place like Olongapo when I was in myself...it surely would have been the death of me! (I assume the BNG was B****** New Guy!)

But as a kid, I loved Subic!

Never made a Med but have heard Naples was every bit as ‘bad’ as Olongapo..
BNG is Brand New Guy...Also knows as FNG (you can figure it out)<: <:

Wasn’t aware of the croc pit but I always get a kick out of people who ‘really don’t know’ refer to a ‘Dog & Pony’ Show as a fiasco -
when in ‘reality’ a REAL Dog & Pony show is quite orchestrated and under control.. (or so I have heard..<: <:)
