<span style="font-size: large;">How is it possible that the Philippines has a regional VA Medical Hospital and Outpatient Hospital yet, the Marianas has none to provide medical services and support for its own Veterans from Guåhan, Luta’ Tinian or Saipan?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">As many on the islands know, we have to fly our Veterans to Hawaii for treatment and other Medical Services, but first their treatment and support must be approved from Hawaii.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">It makes no sense lai. It would be more cost efficient to the Federally Funded VA to allow or even refer our Veterans to the P.I. since it would be more cost efficient by paying for a cheaper flight.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">In addition to being provided Medical Services much sooner to Veterans coming from the Marianas than having Marianas Veterans wait for a 6 to 8 hour flight to arrive in Hawaii, in and some cases if the Veteran has a severe or critical ailment that can't be treated in HI, at least the P.I. has an abundance of Medical Professionals whom can</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">also provide the same level of needed Medical services at a much affordable cost because the abundant number of Doctors they have which is similar to the abundance of Medical Professionals there are in Cuba.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>

<span style="font-size: large;">CHamoru Veterans need to reach out to their respective representative(s), Governor, Congressional Representative and the VA advocates to work towards attaining a similar Medical Facility at least in Guahan where all Veterans from the Marianas and</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Micronesia can be provided their much needed medical treatment(s) as needed and not have to wait for Hawaii to approve medical prescriptions for prescriptions made in Guahan that require approval.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Where is the support and thanks from the Veterans Administration for the CHamorus and those of Micronesia whom have served with pride?</span><br />

==============================================<br />
<br />
Make time to go around the Paseo to see the many delegates or delegation booths this week because it all ends at the end of the week.<br />
<br />
It’s been wonderful to meet and speak to our Pacific Neighbors and to learn that we have a lot in common, in the many complex ways we are similar. Next week’s column will discuss some of the ways.<br />
<br />
Today’s column is about American Samoa’s ‘Au Siva’ or dance group. Unfortunately, the photo of the three men used for my column are from Samoa and not American Samoa’s “Au Siva’.<br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I find it fascinating to see that the CHamoru language to
many CHamorus abroad especially in the lower 48 states in the U.S. find their
native language of Guåhan and the Marianas as a “secondary language.” But with much praise to all those past and
present who continue in teaching the language to those “willing to learn” their
native language using all forms of medium available to spread the knowledge. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">vehicles,
the answer as to what People claims the vehicle is clear, “They are CHamoru.” It doesn’t bother me if they were born
abroad, rather it makes one quite happy to know that the descendants whom have
left the island for whatever reason have found some form of identity and are
proud of it. And for that we should all
be proud.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Recently, I have seen more spirited efforts both on island
and off by CHamorus in undertaking much effort in teaching both the native
language and more recently the written form of the language.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Although the efforts must be commended, many traditional
CHamorus whom grew up speaking the language feel that the written language
would only divide the people into sects.
As many I have spoken to in the region have mentioned, “Tåya adai na
mafa’någué ham taimanu ma’tuge’-påpa' i lenguåhita’.” Others believe that this should actually help
perpetuate the culture and its People by doing so in teaching a written version
of the language.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Not personally taking sides on the issue, I must admit that
descendants of the Ancient CHamoru and Native to the Marianas region should be
proud that an effort is being undertaken and with such vigor and enthusiasm.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Speak it! Teach it! Practice it daily! Even if by only comprising a simple sentence
that you can use to teach your descendants, your forefathers and mothers will
be proud to see that you’ve taken that time in passing a legacy that has
existed for thousands of years and that their legacy will continue to live even
in a highly technological environment!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In an effort to ensure leading Republican Presidential Candidate Donald J. Trump from garnering the Republican nominee, senior establishment Republicans are strategizing by urging supporters of all previous Republican candidates whom have fallen out of the race to vote for Bernie Sanders instead.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In using this strategy, the establishment Republicans along with senior members of the RNC hope to salvage what is left of the Party after Trump’s continued egocentric “reality TV” behavior, his promoting of violence, in addition to his advocating of non-traditional Republican foundational beliefs.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">As a senior leader in the Party stated, “Since none of the current candidates meet or hold Republican traditional values or are even favored by any of the establishment members, we can discount Hillary Clinton and all remaining Republican candidates still in the running…”</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Another establishment member of the GOP also considered the 1964 commercial recently being re-aired on YouTube that “…We shouldn’t just vote for whoever is the leading candidate of the Party… We need to ensure the People elect someone whom can best serve the Nation…”</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The reality is that the country does not need to be made “great again” since it was already great to begin with…</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Although John Kasich does comply with and promote traditional Republican values, the establishment does not believe that Kasich has enough to garner a win over Hillary Clinton.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">So the plot now is to avoid “all Republican Candidates including the current leading Democratic Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton…” The establishment has no other choice but to urge supporters to lean towards the underdog Democratic Candidate Bernie Sanders.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The objective is to salvage what is left that Trump has not destroyed and also prevent another establishment Democratic runner (Clinton) from being the Presidential nominee. As the word on the street goes, “the mission would be a win-win for both parties.”</span></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4680831267564476812.post-38399543564305528332016-03-14T20:14:00.000-07:002016-03-14T20:14:33.852-07:00CA - Uno Hit Dinner and Show - Season 5 Recital<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 13.0pt;"><span style="font-size: large;">During
the course of my continued family research today I ran into something I never
in my wildest dreams would have ever expected to have seen. As I was reviewing the August 2, 1862, New
Bedford Massachusetts Naval Enlistment log I ran into three unusual names of
men aged from 16 to 24.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

are the third, fourth, and eighth names on the log.</span></span></td></tr>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">What was unusual for me in
running into these names on this log was that all three listed their place of
birth as “Guam.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Think about it for a second,
on August 2, of 1862, the Civil War had already been ongoing for nearly a year
and a half, at the time these three were enlisting in the Navy.</span><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">What brought these three
young men from Guam to New Bedford Massachusetts?<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">I hope to find out the 5Ws (Who, What, Where, Why, &
When) associated with how these men came to Massachusetts and found themselves
enlisting in the Navy for the Union of a Country whose People were in the midst
of a dreadful War that would eventually cost the lives of an estimated 1,264,000
million Americans. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">At any rate the three young men I found were as follows: <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">With renewed enthusiasm in continuing my family research as
a result of this golden find, as a relative of the <i>Rosario</i> family through <i>Bruno
Rosario</i> (bn abt 1860) and of his wife <i>Juliana
Rosario Benavente </i>(bn abt 1852), I’m hoping to one day find some (if any) connection
with either <i>Bruno</i> or <i>Juliana</i> with <i>Benjamin Rosario</i> (bn abt 1838) who was the eldest (24 years old) of
the three from Guam whom enlisted in 1862.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
