A reenactment battle is planned. for the reenactment it is. maybe we can also do a living history exhibit for both sides. Otherwise honor ceremonies and everything else will be in Allied uniforms AFAIK.

If you plan on registering for the reunion activities - presentation/ panel talks specially for Saturday which includes the Gala Banquet Dinner please let Jojo Dy, Jojo N or Albert.
We will include you in the hotel accomodations listing for those who will register. So you can avoid all the hassle of traveling back and forth to Manila.
For those who prefer to only join the Gala banquet dinner the fee would be less as posted in the registration form. And this will not included the presentations or panel talks of all the hotel program of activities.
If you passionate about Philippine history during WWII, this is once in a lifetime opportunity to meet and hear the Veteran's stories and see the premier screening of Donald Plata's "Forgotten soldiers" in the Philippines specially in the home fort of the Scouts.
A PS Militaria display and paintings of the battle of Bataan by Hershy Masayon will be on display.
Then there will be a tour of the battle field locations around Bataan already in the planning stage.
See you all on 7th April 2012!
Philip

For the Gala dinner yes a formal Class A khaki PS uniform would be the appropriate dress code.
And Would be interesting to included when Dr. Rico Jose presentation about the Japanes POV of the war in the Philippines is presented.
