I trained with GM Nick elizar and son Norman April 2006, this was my introduction to escrima and although I was keen before I am insatiable now. My experience taught me that you need a lot of patience to teach and Nick had plenty of it ( fortunately for me) I would be pleased to hear from any more of Nicks students located here in UK so pm me ok. Clips are at http://homepage.ntlworld.com/malcolmk/ --__--__-- Message: 2 Date: Sun, 07 May 2006 10:17:31 -0400 From: gatpuno@aol.com To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Subject: [Eskrima] American who fought for us. Reply-To: eskrima@martialartsresource.net Jose, You are right, we should never take the help of this "Foreigner" that help us get our freedom, not particularly some Americans,there German, Dutch, German and Indian Natioanl that help Philippines. Do you remember the movie that Nick Nulphy, has made title "The King". Which American Soldier, who fought side by side with Filipino Against japanese, later he feel in love to local Princess and married her, It turn out to be the King of the Tribes. But the American find him in the Island and captured him and charge him, for turning his back to the American flag. He was captured with one Japanese that he was fighting but later become his friend too. Ans also that Japanese become allied by the Philippines. It was a good movies and reminds me of the other American Soldier that turn Filipino by choice. It great post.

Mark Twain wrote: I left these shores, at Vancouver, a red-hot imperialist. I wanted the American eagle to go screaming into the Pacific. It seemed tiresome and tame for it to content itself with the Rockies. Why not spread its wings over the Phillippines, I asked myself? And I thought it would be a real good thing to do. I said to myself, here are a people who have suffered for three centuries. We can make them as free as ourselves, give them a government and country of their own, put a miniature of the American constitution afloat in the Pacific, start a brand new republic to take its place among the free nations of the world. It seemed to me a great task to which had addressed ourselves. But I have thought some more, since then, and I have read carefully the treaty of Paris, and I have seen that we do not intend to free, but to subjugate the people of the Phillippines. We have gone there to conquer, not to redeem. . . It should, it seems to me, be our pleasure and duty to make those people free, and let them deal with their own domestic questions in their own way. And so I am an anti-imperialist. I am opposed to having the eagle put its talons on any other land.
