80 Years ago, in October 1944 the Allied forces in the Pacific were preparing to re-conquer the Philippines and other Pacific Islands from the Imperial Japanese forces.
Led by General Douglas MacArthur, the Allies were turning the tide against the Japanese forces. Our Team of OHOA volunteers are honored to participate the historic occasions on 18-20 Oct 2024, Palo and Tacloban, Leyte and Hinunganan, South Leyte.
During and following the military-driven events, our OHOA team members are helping the WW-II veterans, family members, children, youth, and adults in Palo, Dulag, Leyte, and Hinunganan, Talisay, South Leyte.
Thank you for your prayers.
