Dear Maria,
Glad to be of help and only too pleased to see Filipino members of the US Navy in World War 1 recognised in this way.
Please feel free to use any of the information you want. I noticed there are a quite a few men whose next-of-kin were
listed in the Philippines.
Good luck with your work, and best wishes,

Mr. Gordon Smith
Dear Mr. Smith,
Sir, I would like to thank you for your excellent website. I was able to identify Filipino WW1 USN personnel while
browsing thru the names in your database. I also found matches in the VA gravelocator for some of the names w/ the same dates
of death & military rank which I will paste @ the end of this e-mail. I am an amateur researcher of Filipino descent
veterans in the U.S. Armed Forces. I maintain websites from WW1 thru Iraq war. I do not earn a cent from any of my websites
& absolutely not involve in the revenue from the ads that the website host earn to recover their cost of providing free
space for my websites. I feel a need to explain this, because I would like request use of your Filipino military database listed
in your website which I will always credit to you. I will also post later a description of your website with your
name in the 1st page of my website. I will paste @ the end of this e-mail my website so you will have an idea what my website
is all about
Again, thank you.
