Before the Spanish made the first naval base at Subic Bay, Olongapo was a sleepy fishing village looking down the nine-mile stretch of blue water to the China Sea. In 1904, the U. S. Navy moved in, and over the years the people of the town became its workers, recreation providers and responsibility.
