Manila, 125 kilometers to the 
north up the coast. 
On the way back to 
Manila Harbor, the deep-sea 
team stopped at Corregidor 
Island, where U.S. and Philip¬ 
pine troops jointly made their 
last stand against an overpow¬ 
ering Japanese invasion in 
1942. This is where Douglas 
MacArthur promised: “I shall 
return.” Having the collabora¬ 
tive Filipino/American expedi¬ 
tion visit Corregidor was a fit¬ 
ting end to the shared expedi¬ 
tion experience. Like Mac¬ 
Arthur, we all hoped to return 
and enjoy the riches of this 
form of collaboration in the 
near future.
