The Philippines
The Philippines. While opinions from folks
stationed at Clark varied greatly when it came to many topics, one of the
things that most will agree to is that the Philippines is one of the most
beautiful places they've ever seen. While flying across the countryside the
different and vibrant shades of greens, set in against the towering mountain
ranges of the Zambales to the west, the Sierra Madres to the northeast and
Cordilleras to the north present a striking portrait. The sprawling rivers,
rice paddies and other bodies of water all contribute to the country's
beauty and uniqueness.

The photo below is believed to be
of Mount Arayat which is located about forty miles to the east of Clark.
This is an extinct volcano and not the one responsible for wiping out Clark
in 1991.
The below photo is of one of the
mountain ranges surrounding Clark Air Base.
The following set of pictures is
of Baguio, the surrounding area and the ever present rice terraces.
