I have a box of Philippine shells from an US Navy physician who was
stationed in Manila. They were collected the month the USA was "asked to
leave" the Philippines back in the late 70's or early 80's (He remembered
jumping on the helicopter in such a hurry to escape that he had to leave
behind numerous other boxes of shells he had collected for me - sigh). Does
anyone have a month and year for this event? (I have lost contact with the
collector).
