When I got stationed at SRF Subic Bay on 11/20/1978, Rizal Avenue was going through some and went through some very big changes. Nearly all the bars & night clubs in what was called the jungle became mostly auto body paint shops, motorcycle repair shops and tire repair shops & tire dealers and people's residences. Rizal Avenue from Magsaysay Drive up to the Bajac Bajac River bridge many of the bars became furniture stores, appliance stores, a bicycle shop next door to Charlie's, Shakey's Pizza, Medz Pizza who I know the owner, Mr. Joe Sia who worked at SRF in Supply & Comptroller Department, a barber shop where I got some of my haircuts, other businesses became warehouses. The big changes that were happening in Olongapo City during the late 1970's, early to mid 1980's was the seed for what was to and did happen. The smart owners who owned some of those bars & night clubs that got out of that business and into the Warehouse, furniture store, appliance store, hardware store businesses were the very smart ones, they seen what was coming and took action.

Olongapo City has changed a lot since I was last there in November 19-26, 1986 when I was stationed aboard the USS Tarawa LHA-1. My very first time that I was there was From November 25 to November 27, 1974 when I was stationed aboard the USS Blue Ridge LCC-19. My very first liberty in Olongapo City was on November 26, 1974 & November 25, 1986 was my final liberty in Olongapo City-12 years apart. I just love the Philippines so much. I met my late wife on Thursday, January 16, 1975, a little over 4 years later on April 5, 1979 we got married & we stayed married 31 years, she passed away March 6, 2010. I am planning to move Back to the Philippines for good within the next 4 years & Live out my life there as my heart is in the Philippines.

Is this the Victory Liner bus?

[@volkslover4857]

The passenger asked for the total bill and the conductor replied 1,000 pesos for 3? Olongapo to Angeles? I think that's too much.
