                    [Summary] => 
Exactly 70 years ago V-Day came to Cebu when the Victor II Attack Group of the Americal Division supported by the 7th Fleet’s Task Force 74 complete with 59 ships appeared off the coast of Talisay (now a city) just six kilometers from Cebu City.

Last Thursday, The Philippine STAR featured a special front-page report that came from Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen… that his luxury yacht and exploration ship M/Y Octopus found the Japanese Imperial Navy’s Super Battleship the Musashi, which was attacked by American carrier fighter bombers off Leyte Gulf and sank it off the island of Romblon.

It is the 68th anniversary of the Talisay Landings by the US Americal Division and I hope that this time around, the Philippine Navy contingent that observes this historic event will be true to their reenactment of this event.

As promised, we will feature in this column today, the 67th year (sorry for the clerical error yesterday where I printed the 57th year) of the Battle of Gochan Hill, which until today still cannot be found in our local history books simply because of our Tagalog centric historians that gave accounts of World War II history from their own views and did not care that history was also being made throughout the rest of the Philippines.

We wrote about 57th anniversary of the Talisay Landing, which has been dubbed as the Liberation of Cebu as I was on my way to Alta Vista and listening to the radio reports over DySS where the reporter gave a blow-by-blow account of what was going on in the reenactment, which I wrote was totally inaccurate from what I’ve read in my history books.
