Because life growing up in the islands, toughens them as men, mentally and physically preparing them for military life. Learning how to survive on your own, or in a communal living, with only things that nature could offer from childhood to adulthood creates character.

I served with my brothers and Sisters from Samoa from 2012-2016, the best time of my life! I truly love Samoa, I got a chance to visit there while serving. My heart belongs there!!!! They are warriors! Stationed in Hawaii, served with Samoan warriors, changed my life forever 😍

[@ganymeade5151]

Samoans are very smart and wise also. Great idea not to grant land rights.

[@islanderws]

@@ganymeade5151 The Samoan chiefs who signed the treaty with the US government back then knew better. They knew if they agree to become US citizens, which they can always get if they move to the mainland. They will loose all their indigenous rights of the land to the US Federal government. And we all know how that went with the native Americans and Hawaiians.

*Samoa is so beautiful! Look at those harbors, the beaches, the coastal areas, the mountains. Now I am longing for my beautiful island of Samar in the Philippines where I grew up. We have the same climate in Samoa I think, coz my Island is facing the South Pacific too. It's been 25 years of being away. I am just imagining and visualizing now how's my grandparent's coconut farms, where we are trapping and catching land crabs for our food, and making copras, and rice fields, the rivers, the streams. The high tides and low tides of our beautiful seas, our pristine coral reefs, and our mangrove forests where I gather firewoods, collecting "nalu-dalo", a kind of delicious sea shell, and digging "tuway" or clams. Oh such a wonderful childhood and teenage memories. I am stuck here in Canada right now. But soon I will be visiting my homeland of Eastern Samar, Philippines.*

I was with my family in both Samoas from 1981 to 1987. I taught in the high schools there. My children began schooling there. Beautiful place with beautiful people. They have thousands of years of culture most of which are still practiced and preserved. One most important practice that is still being observed there is the respect to the elders and teachers , which is fading fast in the rest of the planet.

Woah, I didn't know that about the enlistment rate. That's really cool. I think it also shows that there can be a harmony between early 20th Century American Imperialism and traditional Samoan native values and culture. It doesn't have to be all bad or all good.

[@lamanchamediatube]

Thanks! Wondering how it looked back then!

[@Me2Lancer]

@@lamanchamediatube There seems to have been more development around the harbor. I recall one fishery. A French Naval vessel docked while we were there. My ship held a party in Pago Pago. I had shore patrol that evening. A Samoan girl Vaimoa Ili danced a traditional Samoan dance, one that she had performed at the Seattle World's Fair in 1962. She enjoyed me protecting her and we had some good conversation. She rewarded me with a Lei and I escorted her home that evening. In 1965 there was very little development in Samoa. I remember some thatched roof villages east of Pago Pago scattered along the shoreline.

This is so interesting; I was never taught anything about these US colonies and they are never mentioned in the news or in any of our media. I've learned alot through KZbin videos.

[@LifeOdysseyMotivation]

*Even my country the Philippines became an American colony from 1898 to 1946. Our ancestors fought in the Philippine-American War. And during World War 2, our soldiers fought with the Americans against the Japanese invaders. And in July 4, 1946, the United States granted the Philippines its independence. Unlike Puerto and Guam, they didn't fully achieve their independence from the United States, until now they are still an American territories.*

[@danluzurriaga6035]

These are not colonies, they are territories. Big difference! With colonies, the colonizer "takes" from the people and land. For US Territories, we taxpayers "give", as in social welfare, social security, food stamps etc. etc.. Don't let them make you feel guilty by calling themselves a "colony"; that is a very nasty word and the US is NOT nasty to the people here. Just like Puerto Rico.

Wutsa Hammerfir actually colonies serve all sorts of purposes, some are for settlement, some for resource extraction, some for the land itself, and some for the sea frontage. Look at the difference between, say British Massachusetts and British Kenya. Could they be any more different? Still both colonies. These American territories are colonies just like the remaining possessions French, British, Dutch, etc. Even Hawaii is debatably a colony, just one that has ascended to the status of a state, but how is it really any different that French Guyana, which has also ascended to statehood within Frence? Answer it’s not, they’re both virtually colonies, although with Hawaii I think a lot of people in America believe Honolulu is much closer to LA than it actually is
