Description
During World War II, Filipinos fought alongside U.S. soldiers to liberate the Philippines from Japanese occupation.. Some of these veterans later immigrated to the U.S., but were denied citizenship. In 1985, Major General Garnet Reynolds presented a Bronze Star to Eddie Espanol, one of 33 Filipino soliders who belatedly recieved medals in Seattle for their service.
