Philippine-American War, 1899-1902

Mao ni tawag "America's first Vietnam"

Grabe sad ang campaign sa Mindanao atong time, katong Moro Rebellion. hadlok daw kaayo ang mga american infantry kung mu sud sila ug heavy vegetation kay ma ambush sila ug mga juramentado nga dugay kaayo matumba tungod sa ilang tourniquet binding. Kylangan ig-on jud ang vitals. But it was peaceful for a while when the then governor of Moro province found a solution--they buried dead Moro "insurgents" with pig carcasses. Na-hilom gud ang lugar during the American occupation.

Ataka gud... insulto mana sa ila e lubong naay baboy. naa ka link ana bro? nahan ko mo read.

^wa koy link bro, but I recall thatcontrary to belief it wasn't the famous Gen. 'Blackjack' Pershing who commanded the deeds (in fact he was respected by the Maranaos during his tenure as governor there. He respected the Moro warriors and forbid his soldiers from committing atrocities in Mindanao--I think he was the only foreigner to be given the title "datu", as well).

It was a certain "Colonel Rogers" (I think). It was a couple of years after the war in Visayas and Luzon ended, because the Moro Rebellion went on from the start of the Spanish-American War in 1899 and ended in 1913. I read it in a book before, unfortunately I can't recall. I'll try to find the title of the book if you want.

that awesome moment when you discover that this:


was designed to be used for moro rebels because the americans' .38 revolvers just couldn't kill them due to lack of stopping power. up to this day, this design remains popular worldwide.

surprising fact is that the m1911 was never used by the U.S. Army against the Moro 'bolo rush'.
