+JMJ+ The Pacific and the Cost of War

After the US government acquired the Philippines from Spain, it spent 150 million dollars just to develop the island of Corregidor into a hangar for its navy. Fifty years later, US military officers inspected every structure on the famed “concrete battleship” [...]
