USNS STOCKHAM NAVY AND MARINES IN OLONGAPO

Mayor James “Bong” Gordon, together with Vice Mayor Cynthia Cajudo led the welcoming of the US Navy and Marine officials and soldiers of the USNS Stockham ship who visited the City of Olongapo last May 23, 2008.

Through the initiative of the City Social Welfare and Development Office (CSWDO), Navy Captain Bradley Smith and Ship Doctor Mark Duncan along with more than twenty (20) US Navy and Marines gathered at FMA Hall.

In the inspirational message of Mayor Gordon, he told the American soldiers of the city’s numerous awards on peace and order and good governance.

The US Navy and Marines happily mingled and played with the young beneficiaries of OCARE, Social Development Center (SDC) and the children of the residents of Center for Women wherein the former gave toys, school supplies and sports equipment as part of their community service for the City of Olongapo.

Earlier, the US Servicemen painted the buildings of Tapinac Elementary School last May 19, 2008 as one of the school’s preparations before the opening of classes in June 2008.
