The American Cemetery & Memorial in Manila's BGC is the largest of it's kind outside the United States. There are over 17,000 graves in over 150 acres of beautifully manicured parkland. It's a moving experience to visit a place with such a sombre and dramatic history.

Thank you so much for featuring this cemetery which is so significant to my family because my father's name is on one of the walls. He was a Sgt. in the Philippine Scouts, the US colonial army in the Philippines. I was born just when WWII started so I unfortunately don't remember him but only know him through family stories. Though I now live in the DC area not far from Arlington Cemetery, this cemetery in Metro Manila is so much more beautiful, serene and peaceful and so perfect as a sanctuary to honor our heroes. So thank you so much...Be well, Mr. Butters, and all the best to you in all your endeavors in the Philippines...

He never talked about it, and my dad and I only learned about it from reading books. The true heroes never came home. I hope to come here some day to pay my respects to these men. I don’t think I would exist without them.

My God I've seen Arlington in DC an I've seen Normandy an now the Philippines. So I looked up just where all the different places that Americans are buried. It is overwhelming the price that America has paid not just for America but for the world. Thomas Jefferson one of the author of our constitution said from time to time the blood of patriots must be spilled to remain free. I pray for the men an women who has layed their lives on that alter of freedom for everyone else to remain free. My bereavement goes out to all the families who has lost loved ones in any battle or war. As a veteran this touched my heart deeply.

Thank you for this video sir. My father was a fighter pilot in WW2. He fought as a guerilla after the air force was decimated. He later had his “best revenge” as an artillery spotter flying an L4. He witnessed the destructive effect on the Japanese bunkers ringside from his coordination with ground artillery.

I hope to visit the next time we travel to the Philippines from the US. My parents and grandmother survived that war and growing up my grandmother told me stories of what they had to do to survive. We lost a branch of our family tree because of that war, but I will never forget the name of the soldier that my mother told me handed her a candy bar after the Liberation of Manila.

For those who have never visited this place or know about the history of the Philippines specifically during WW2, you may have provided enough brief to pique one's interest. I visited that cemetery and I too felt everything you have felt and expressed and no doubt every visitors would have felt that too. It was peaceful, serene and at the same time, reflective. Manila, with its in your face poverty and extravagance, you scratch a little, and you find the enormity of its place in history. I am a Filipino, married to a Japanese and living in Australia. My father and his brothers and friends have marched in the Bataan Death March (the Kokoda Track of the Philippines). He survived the march but suffered what nowadays called PTSD. I think it is Filipinos' psyche not to commemorate its part in the War but I am glad the Manila American Cemetery & Memorial is there to remind us their extreme sacrifice...

I’m hoping for the American VA hospital to reopen to its original location for all the US Veterans who decided to live or frequently visit the Philippines and not inside the American embassy which is only a clinic. Hoping the US Veterans will lobby for this just like how they lobbied for the US Medicare coverage in the Philippines.

I appreciate you Mashall. I really do. As usual, your narration is great, you have this knack of story-telling and painting a picture through a great narrative. Your commentary of not forgetting the lessons of the past was also spot on. Once again, thanks for delving into a piece of PH history / American-Japanese history. I hope you enjoyed visiting this place as much as we were watching this. Great video and keep up the great work Marshall! We love you!

Marshall, I'm glad you made it to the American Cemetery; I know it's maintained by the US Veterans Administration (I'm a US military veteran myself). I've never been there and that place is so peaceful and quite a nice reprieve from the hustle & bustle of Manila! Well said, if the axis powers at the time won the war, our lives would be completely different today; we would probably all be speaking Japanese & German. Rest in Peace to all who gave the ultimate sacrifice in defense of freedom. Check out Corregidor Island next time; very historic, too; I have been there in early 70s. Stay safe, Marshall!

Thank you so much for this video. My husband & I visited this cemetery in one trip there and I was totally moved to see the headstones & the 36k names on cenotaths. I thought the same. The what-ifs. I am forever grateful to these young men who fought to liberate the PH. I would probably not be here had my beautiful mom not survived. She was in her teens then & her family had to live in a remote area to avoid the Imperial Japanese Army. It was a terrifying period in the Philippine history. Btw, Corregidor is another interesting place to visit.

@@marshallbuttersvlogs6880 This is Maria's husband, John! Thanks so very, very much for your thoughtful, well-narrated video. On a visit to the P.I. 10 years ago in 1011, I mentioned I wanted to see the American Cemetery and Corregidor. We saw both. Maria was unaware of this place -- and most Americans are as well. Because this cemetery is so far away, on Veterans Day (Remembrance Day in the U.K.) and Memorial Day in May, if we see some sort of commemoration in the U.S. showing a burial site overseas, it is always the cemetery in Normandy, which is about half the size of the one in BGC. I'm sure that most of the Americans buried in BGC have never been visited by loved ones or family members -- simply because of the distance and because the European Theater got the bigger play at the time and over the decades since. Thank you again for showing that so many young Americans -- and Filipinos -- gave their lives to fight off the evil of the Japanese Empire. I've been to Japan seven times and love the country and culture, but we should not forget what happened before (and that no country has a blameless past). If we can remember, we can hope that we can make things better in the present and future. 👍 Oh... and has anyone ever mentioned that you look very much like an Aussie version of Christoph Waltz?

I say the most beautiful American cemetery in the world. Although we never find the grave or body of my grandfather who fought in Corregidor Island which is a few miles away from Manila, in my mind I was hoping he was buried in the cemetery. We were there last year before the pandemic and paid tribute.

That's just part of how Americans gorgeously urban planned the Metropolis, you can just imagine how beautiful Manila, Baguio, Zubic, Cavite, and the whole country were way back in the time of the Americans. I can see the difference between how American government and the corrupt government of the Philippines handled the country before. Good thing we still have a few good men who try to bring back the old glory of the Philippines if not to be equal to the most well-developed countries in South East Asia. May pag-asa pa ang bansa, kailangan lamang ng mamamayan na matutong gumamit ng kanyang isip sa pagpili ng kanyang pinuno base sa kakakayahan at track record ng lider at hindi magpadala sa silakbo ng kanyang damdamin sa pagpili sa pag-aakalang ang kanyang napili ay mabait, mahinahon magsalita at may maamong mukha. Higit sa lahat napapanahon ng ang bawat isa ay maging desiplinado, edukado, civil at higit sa lahat ay gumawa ng dambuhalang kulungan sa Babuyan Islands at duon itapon ang lahat ng mga kurakot na politiko, kurakot na negosyante, kurakot na government official at lahat ng kampon ng kasamaan sa lipunan!
