to return to the philippines. he had a strategic argument for that, but essentially the argument was, the emotional appeal. the promise he had made to the filipino people, that i shall return. and he certainly wanted to do exactly that. to return to the philippines. and as you recall, the united states had guaranteed the filipino people their freedom in 1946. and that happened before the war. it is far as the americans were concerned, that was an obligation that we owed to the filipino people. so that was mcarthur's argument. and admiral earnest king, and chester nimitz. they had a different proposal, they wanted to go to formosa. that would make sense because they are coming from the central pacific. all the way over to formosa. why did they recommend for melissa? because most of the things that the japanese military, and the japanese homeland really needed, we're down here in the dutch east indies. rubber, oil, and some other key supplies that they needed for the war machine. and if you are sitting in for meliss

i grew up in the philippines and even in the philippines having darker skin was dismissed, and when ihe philippines to here, just to be seen, was probably the biggest thing. my series of kyumumgi i was telling children how proud we needed to be, how i see the color of our skin and how important that is. i want to honor my ancestors, the people before me, the women before me, in a way that just shows their resilience and their beauty and also their femininity. as a child at 5, in the philippines, there's so many palm trees, i was just draw them, free hand, that was really fun for me to do. so art was always part of me. when i immigrated it meant more. a way for me to connect with what was going on inside of me. it was healing. it was definitely healing. like my safe space that i could express myself. and then now, with my children and my family, it's definitely a more rejoicing part of it. about two years ago quinn, my daughter, was doing a self-portrait. she was frustrated. she was like, mom, i can't make this look like me. and i asked her why, what was the problem, and, you know, she

he wanted to return to the philippines. he strategic -- he had a strategic argument for that, but essentially the argument was the emotional deal, the promise he made to the filipino people that i shall return. and he certainly wanted to do exactly that, to return to the philippines. and, as you recall. the united states had guaranteed the filipino people their freedom in 19 six -- 1936, before the war. americans thought that was an obligation -- as far as americans were concerned, that was an obligation to the filipino people. nimitz had a different proposal. they wanted to go to formosa. that would make sense because they are coming from the central pacific all the way over to formosa. why did they recommend formosa? most of the things that the japanese military and the japanese homeland needed was out here in the dutch indies, rubber and especially oil and some other key supplies that they needed for their war machine, and if you are sitting in formosa, you basically cut that off. so that was the argument the navy was pr

june 1944 you have the battle of philippine sea. and in that case you have the u.s. 5th fleet 15 aircraft carriers -- imagine that, 15 aircraft carriers -- against 9 japanese aircraft carriers. and in the process, the japanese lose three carriers, two actually two submarines. so, that's a set back for them. but in the same time frame you have what is now known as the great marianas turkey shoot where the air fleet, the japanese naval air fleet is basically decimated after that. there's really not much left. a lot of their senior best naval pilots died in that process. so, that's where we're at in july. so, july 1944 then, you have franklin roosevelt that goes out to pearl harbor and sits down with mcarthur and others. admiral leahy who is essentially serving as the joint chiefs of staff, although that wasn't the official title, he was there as well. there was quite the debate. these gentlemen, some of them had very big egos. i think almost all of them did, had some serious disagreements about what to do. mcarthur, what he wanted was

he was the hero of the middle of the philippine sea.people like fdr were willing to as tolerate his idiosyncrasies, and his flagship was the uss indianapolis. that is the ship that carries the atomic bomb. and it was some afterwards. after it had been selected. anyways, spruance would walk up and down the deck, of the indianapolis, in his shorts, no shirt. white socks and black shoes. thinking, three to four hours at a time. thinking about things. that tells you a bit about the personality of spruance. admiral richmond turner. 1908 graduate of west point. of the u.s. naval academy. yes, he would be fuming if you hear me make that mistake. he was the brains behind the navy and marines and cbs operations. he developed the notion of and finneas landings early in the war. he will have the responsibility of all amphibious forces, including the third amphibious core. three marine divisions. not sure how marines feel about having a navy officer command them. but that is how the command structure worked. lieutenant general simon buck near junio
