"EL ORIGEN Y LA ESENCIA DEL #CredoLegionario Y LA INFLUENCIA DE LA CULTURA SAMURAI EN #LaLegión".
Un joven #MillánAstray con 17 años y destinado en #Filipinas, tuvo conocimiento de una "Gesta Histórica" de los #TerciosEspañoles, tras derrotar en #Combate a los Samurais...
(Muy superiores en número, y hasta ese momento catalogados como invencibles), en los Combates de #Cagayán en 1582, quedó fascinado por la cultura oriental, por lo que se sumergió en la Historia y Cultura Nipona y en especial en los "Guerreros Samurais".
Así comenzó su búsqueda, encontrando un libro escrito por Inazo Nitobé del 1895, titulado "#BUSHIDO - EL CAMINO DEL GUERRERO", y que #MillánAstray traduciría después al #Castellano.
En él se describen las 7 Virtudes que rigen la vida de los #Samurais, creadas por Kōsaka Masanobu.

This is Neri Abalos and Randy Valdes.

Childhood friends. Neighbors. Residents of Pared village in Alacala.

Now considered heroes in their community. #UlyssesPH #Cagayan

Their story in this thread.
During the deluge, their neighbors — a mother and her son — were trapped in their house and called for rescue.

Neri and Randy heeded the call. They used Neri’s boat — which he saved up for and bought precisely for emergency use in their village.
Neri and Randy were able to reach their neighbors.

While on the boat and on the way back to safe ground, witnesses say there was a sudden jolt of electricity.

The community rallied and they were able to get to the mother and son and bring them to dry land.

Flood has subsided in many parts of Alcala. But debris in the aftermath of the deluge is slowing down relief operation as inner roads are still not passable. In Jurisdicion village, residents had to walk and meet stranded relief op vehicles for aid. #Cagayan #UlyssesPH
Alcala Mayor Cristina Antonio: 24 out of 25 barangays in our town were flooded, 7 were totally submerged. Some barangays are still isolated, inundated. Humuhupa ang baha pero mabagal #Cagayan #UlyssesPH
Antonio: 4 fatalities in Alcala. 4,630 remain displaced. Hindi pa kasama diyan yung mga kababayan natin na nasa kabahayan nila at binaha at umakyat sa mga bubong as taas ng bahay. #Cagayan #UlyssesPH
