CONGRATULATIONS & MABUHAY!!!Our very own Legionnaire and his group certainly brought honor to our people and this forum. Speaking about "Reenactors", I just posted elsewhere in this forum an item about another MacArthur look-alike: Actor Dennis Leslie. However, the accompanying photo didn't come out all right (again!). Here's the unseen part of that photo. Dennis "Gen. MacArthur" Leslie, left, with other members of his reenactment team – Cornell and Elena Iliescu of the Noble Cause Foundation.
