Ash Warriors The Usaf And Mt. Pinatubo

In Nov. 1991 the Amer. flag was lowered for the last time at Clark Air Base in the Philippines. This act brought to an end Amer. mil. presence in the Philippines that extended back over 90 years. It also represented the final act in a drama that began with the initial rumblings in April of that year of the Mt. Pinatubo volcano, near Clark. This book tells the remarkable story of the men & women of the Clark community & their ordeal in planning for & carrying out their evacuation from Clark in face of the impending volcanic activity.
