Thank you for sharing your story. My Great - Grandmother told me about Guamanians once live around her era. She said that the bay was named " The Chamorro Bay ". Thanks again.

Your story is fascinating and parallels my service in the Navy. My homeport was Apra Harbor, Guam. Most of our patrols covered what has become the Federated States of Micronesia. On one trip we visited Woleai Atoll. That night while cruising toward Truk we received a call that a Woelai chieftain had appendicitis. We reversed course and returned to Wolai to pick up the chief, then transported him to Truk. You mentioned Yap. Our patrols of the Western Caroline Islands took us through Ulithi and Yap entroute to Koror, Palau.

My great grand father is from Yap. My grandmother told me he was alive through the Spanish, German, Japanese, and American Yap. He died before he saw our independence. He lived his whole life under multiple colonialists but he had a special place in his heart for the Spanish and even though he died speaking Yapese, Spanish, German, Japanese, and English he prayed in Spanish until his last day he lived to be a 120 still strong and handsome with full body tattoos. I thought that was special. Just wanted to share that story my grandma told me

Omg my grandma whom is Carolinian. She told us that her great grandfather or grandfather if im not mistake is from tamuning. My grandma is the last eldest of the generation which her family is from tamuning. No wonder they call my grandma “ninang tamuning”

Tamuning used to be a Carolinian Village. Most of the Carolinians from Guam were sent off to Saipan if they did not cover up their bodies. During that time Spain fully took over Guam & many of them did not follow what they wanted for Guam as of that time the Catholic church was already strong & they still held on to their culture so they round them up & took them over to Saipan. One of the remaining Carolinians who stayed back are the Sablans.

very interesting but so hard to hear with the constant music overlay.
