Zg463. (-00). This was the Enlisted Men Boat Landing where I first stepped on land in the Philippines in 1962, as a 20 year old and BM3. After the first day I said to myself, I like this place.

Zg469. (-20). Looking back across the ‘Drainage Canal’, notice the covered walkway. The condition of the river water has improved a little. For three years now the former Main Gate Bridge is under construction to be replaced. This note was written in Sep. 2023!

Zg468

Zg468. (-19). Across the bridge and looking up Magsaysay Dr. Left are those ex ‘Super Clubs’ which only seen me once in my 30 year career. Right was ‘Lot 21’ but now is a neat Mall and now in 20023 it is the SM Mall “Olongapo City Down Town”.
