HISTORY:
The Philippines:  Scene of repeated Allied
disasters at war's beginning.  Clark Field.
Subic Bay.  Corregidor.  The Bataan Death
March.  Now, on October 20, 1944,
having suffered through nearly three
years of cruel Japanese occupation, Filipinos
look to the skies and seas as the overwhelming,
merciless Allied forces return to set them
free.  The campaign to retake the islands will
last through the end of the war.  It will cost
the allies over 60,000 casualties, and will
take the lives of nearly 350,000 of the
Emperor's loyal, doomed subjects.

Where have you been the past many years? The AvA is almost always running some type of week long event and runs 24/7. There is no registration, its open to go, anytime. The AvA has been on the down slope for a few years now, as is the numbers in general. The AvA staff puts a lot of effort into running these setups, but they can only do so much to get people into the arena.
