5. Philippine War: Battle of Manila (1899)

from Hardtack · host Mike Ware

Americans have coined the Korean War ‘the forgotten war’ as it was largely overshadowed by both World War II and Vietnam. However, the Korean War is far from forgotten and the title is perhaps best bestowed upon the Philippine War, fought over a century ago from 1899 to 1902, and overshadowed by the Spanish-American War and World War I. Perhaps as a listener you are learning for the first time that the United States fought a war against the Philippines and are wondering ‘how did the United States get there?’ Tune in and learn about the first and bloodiest battle of the Philippine War, the Battle of Manila (1899).
