Cubi Point Storage Magazine Was Not Guarded, So I Saw All of It. I had a Motorcycle, and Was Ready to Drive Along Jungle Paths.

Let’s just say losing Cubi was a much bigger hit to USA than losing Subic Bay, or Clarke Field.

Now, to be honest Imelda did have a pretty good collection of shoes. Many were tailor fit for her feet by skilled Italian shoe makers in NYC.

Closet full of the most stylish shoes. Way out in the Philippines. Gotta give her credit.

Yes, I did see every building in the magazine. Yes, Australia would not let us have a magazine there, and Guam was too far back from the Westpac fleet. So losing Cubi was no small thing.

Nuclear weapons degrade over time and become far less reliable. They need to be opened up and some to the material needs to be changed out (Beryllium/Polonium Zipper) to make sure they will detonate properly.

So you need a weapons magazine where ready bombs and missiles, and torpedos can be stored so they are available to re-place those that are onboard your Westpac platforms (ships, subs, planes).

I told Navy in 1982 that it was going to lose Subic, Cubi, and Clarke.

I was a diplomat, and very close to the legal community in Manila, and Subic.

Sure enough, it happened just as I said it would.

Marcos threw us out.

It was a people’s movement. Organized by the far Left.

I worked for Nixon, Reagan, and GW Bush.

I was trained by Leo Strauss, Werner Earhardt, and Ayn Rand.
