- Volcanic eruption, base evacuation, days turning to night, all of these and more, stay tuned. We have our own personal videos that have to get uploaded, but this was the official FEN news broadcast that military and families saw once the dust settled. My husband and I unforgettable experienced.
Brings back sad memories. I was born in pampanga, and my father made me go back to the US to finish college. I had one year left, and enlisted with the plan to be assigned back to clark. During basic training, Pinatubo erupted. I didnt get back to Angeles until 18 months ago, at 50 years old. Everything is so different here now. Thank you for posting.
So sad. I was one of those of the 1500 who remained behind and evacuated the morning of the eruption. We returned to Clark a few days later only to find almost total destruction and wet sand/ash covering everything. Greatest assignment of my career and I miss it so much. It took me weeks to locate my Filipina girlfriend. We were married three months later and have been married for 33 years.
wow....just WOW! I worked at FEN, these reporters were my friends. I departed Clark the day before the eruption on normal PCS. Truly wish I was there for it to help my team. Thanks for the great video!
Dimple, I want to thank you for putting this video up. I had never seen much of these Far East News videos, as we were among the thousands of Clark families being evacuated during this time. It is something that I will never forget.
Loved this because it is essentially Armed Forces News services and I love how well the production is done. I was in the USAF and appreciated all the news services that kept us up to date while away from home. It was our only version of the internet. That or ordering late newspapers. Thank you.
As a US Army Specialist I got to see Clark Air Force Base before the eruption for a few weeks in 1989 while on a 45 day leave of "Adventure". I was flying Military Space - A trying to get to a US Air Force Base in Thailand but missed one of the two monthly military flights out of Clark because the C-5 Galaxy that I had hopped out of Hickam AFB Hawaii had tail fins problems that grounded the plane for a few days. With no flights out I spent the last few weeks of my leave at Clark. So glad I got to see it was still operational. Gone But Not Forgotten.

Yes it was a traumatic experience that I will never forget. I have stories about the impacted and devastation due to explosion of Mt Pinatubo before I was shipped to my parents in law while my husband stayed in the Philippines to work back and forth to Clark and Subic.
Watching again here...
History :) salamat sa suporta.

Nice video sis
Nakknood at nlike kna dn
I was a kid living in Manila when Pinatubo erupted. It was so dark and raining at around 2 or 3 pm. The next day, ashes were all over. I've been hearing news from the adults that a volcano was erupting but i never realized how catastrophic it was until i was older.
I saw that mountain every time I flew into Clark on my way to Subic Bay in the mid 70s.
I was at clark in Jan and Feb 89. Miss the Philippines and was very sad when Pinatubo blew.
Oh my gush grabi ang usok ang kapal. Thanks for sharing sis.
Your welcome, thanks for watching sis. An unforgettable disaster.
Spent five great years in two tours at Clark. Left when the volcano hit. A great place to work and live...in a great country with even better people.
Nice to lookback fullview here
Thank you sis.
Brings back memories, both sad but respect of those caught up in the afternoon darkness and tremor that persisted on that day 96 shock waves hit. I was a 36 yrs old Australian Army Sgt on vacation, shit hit the fan and I was drinking beers with mates and US guys at Moon-Doggies, as the Moon-doggies sign kept swinging each time a tremor struck, and our beers were rejuvenated.
Looking overs at Clarke as the last convoys were making a run for it ( ZAMBALES- wrong place to go that day). The chores of shouts went out to the single barmaid left, one more beer. By this time we all had ash grey hair.
So it was decided that we move to a safe haven that would accommodate us for both more beer and food, down to Garfield ( old Garfield) we marched. Auntie Tess and the staff were over joyed to see us enter, and it comforted them a lot, that boys came back to the clubroom.
For the next week I stayed to assist both my US brothers and Filipinos, shoveling Lahar off roofs be for they collapsed and do what I could.
At the time I was on vacation with my Filipino fiancé. Was the best holiday we ever had, but it is another story for an old digger to tell people, and each year I go back, I meet Filipinos from back then, even the peanut boy selling those great garlic nuts.
wow~ good video~^^
like numbered 21, new friend
This news coverage is better than CNN.
29 years ago I'm here working in clark field special economic zone and staying near the mabalacat gate 😂
Hello new friend here sending my full support, stay safe from team rene oc
Now ko lang nakita ting video na to..thanks sa pag share kabayan..bagong kaibigan po pala..inunahan nakita..lamunah
Marami ang report nila kahit iyong papunta at pabalik nila ng Clark at Subic mayroon kaya lang nasira iyong iba sa katagalan ng panahon.
We've had a house in Pangasinan for decades, right across the border from Tarlac Prov., and we lucked out when Pinatubo went off. The Tradewinds blew the ash westward just enough where we didn't get hardly any ashfall at all -- while just a few miles SW of us the place was buried in ash; looked like a moonscape, especially at night.
wow old fotage,,new friend po
Brings back memories!
Some good some bad. Earthquakes and rocks falling from the sky, but we made it out alive.
Wow nice VOLCANO great memories

Goodbye FEN Philippines since when Mt. Pinatubo eruption happened at the time...
Game 5 of the 1991 NBA Finals were very last televised LIVE on Far East Network (FEN) Philippines and GMA-7...
This was the very first NBA Finals broadcast on NBC especially the legendary NBA theme song called Roundball Rock by John Tesh...
Cory Aquino, Fidel V. Ramos😂 flashback.
Grabe ang kapal ng Ash.. tapos to ah!
Like 22 ako sissy..
play here again dear
ohh. those were the days! elementary pa lang ako ng time na to! i remember may narinig nga akong balita na ganito!
Ako high school pa lang nun naka tira kami sa Angeles city. Grabe yung June 15 kasabay ng bagyo akala namin katapusan ng mundo. Lindol, kidlat na pula at sulfuric ash fall ng na experience namin. Alang kwenta kasi mayor nun Alang evasive measures na ginawa. Sinabi pang over reacting pa daw mga Americans sa pag evacuate.
Ron Jeremy could put Pinatubo to shame... Light weight eruption
I was there in Baretto I was working on my papers to come to US that was so sad
Far East Network Philippines Class Public Base Pinatubo Volcanic Eruption You covered the incident ~~ I found out that I didn't know. I hope this doesn't happen. I pray for a quick recovery 🙏
I was station at Clark Air Base one (1) before Mount Pinatubo Explosion which happen exactly 30 years ago, this month June 1991. GOD bless Philippines and GOD bless America.
🎦what about your personal Videos concerning the Eruption?
At that time we sold furnitures in Timog park. The factory was destroyed, roof fell and many machines and finished China cabinets were destroyed. The most horrifying event that ever happened in our lives. It's good we survived the ordeal.
I was there on Clark when the first eruption happened. A stake bed truck picked me up and we bugged out to Mt Arayat to an agricultural college. From there we later made our way to Subic.
That is where Rusty Barfield and the other FEN news crew went after they shot their final footage. All others that evacuated early and were at Subic Naval Base were the ones that got hit the worst when the storms rolled in.
wonderful info and sad experience for many
Sobra din ang pngyayari dati soo sad sa mga biktima.glad to see this memories thanks mysufurt here.
Tama ka po sis lika sa amin usap tayo sis
I have remember this was really an outcry for us as a kid we were at school when the Pinatubo erupted and really all of us were so scared and crying loudly when we got home finally it is more saddened coz our small and only dying televising fell and broke so we don't have anymore television
Almost 30 years after you can still see some volcanic ashes around clark and subic and the province of pampanga, tarlac and zambales.
if you play the clark golf course there. your playing on a layer of ash mixed with some topsoil.
There's a BBC Horizons / NOVA special with much of this footage in it, "In the Path of a Killer Volcano", that focuses on the volcanologists who saved so many by absolutely nailing the prediction. If they'd failed, no one would have believed them when it mattered, but they got everything right and lives were saved, as seen here.
That is what I was watching before I saw this one. Loved this because it is essentially Armed Forces News services. I believe that Rusty went on to interview Obama as part of Pentagon News or something.
Yeah
@@jkocol My favorite part of the Nova program is when the US Air Force General in charge of Clark Air Force Base in Luzon says, "I made the decision to evacuate Clark when [a seismologist named Andy] ran past me and said, 'General, you'd better put jam in your pockets, because we're all about to be toast." The General said that no matter the scientists' instruments and know-how, when that young scientist said that, running away, from him, he figured he's better follow him. 300,000 lives were saved.
yes i was 50 kmart away San Marcelino Zambales
I went to Jungle survival school, there at Clark, in 1971. I remember taking a photo of that volcano from up on the hills behind the base. It didn't look REAL. It looked like something out of a painting or a science fiction movie. BEAUTIFUL. Too bad it blew up and spoiled the USAF base at Clark and its own natural beauty.
Hi hello IDOL happy Valentine to you god bless .🥰🥰🥰
Naranasan ko yan noon,usok at alikabok.Malapit kasi kami diyan sa mount pinatubo. Wow cory aquino at Fidel V. Ramos. Ok na po tayo madam. Salamat
Maraming salamat din
Grabe din pala noon. Keep praying lang po tayo. Ingat po lagi
12:00 po ng tanghali noon 3x na dumilim bago tuloy-tuloy na ang dilim hanggang umaga na. Kami ang last (local) airforce personnel na nakalabas ng CAB ng araw na iyon. May instruction sa team ko na isecure at imonitor yung evacuation ng mga last group ng scty personnel (mga Phil Air Force from CABCOM) that time. Madilim na, umuulan na ng buhangin, may communication failure na, wala ng contact sa mga tactical radio namin. Nagdecide yung TL namin na aalis na rin kami after 2 hrs 😆. Kami na lang pala ang tao sa loob ng clark air base. Ni buntot ng convoy d na namin inabot sa NLEX😅.huminto na lang kami nagtambay sa bulacan sa hindi na abot ng sandfall.
Amazing!! I'm here in Clark working on a documentary about the former base. I'd love to feature clips of this video in my upcoming film. Do you know if there would be any copyright concerns? Perhaps it's in the public domain now? I'm not sure who could grant permission for me to use this footage, but please let me know if you have further information or contacts so I can get the formal "OK." Thanks so much!!
hello, please e-mail me at nitasoy@live.com, I'll give more details. Thanks for the interest.
@@DimplesLife Thanks, I will!
I look forward to seeing your documentary. Do you have a release date?
@@1cairo12 It's now on CZcams! The title is "Clark - Lost Treasures in the Pacific." I hope you enjoy! Merry Christmas!! 😊
Nate any documentary should include the tremendous amount of looting, scavenging and partial destruction of both Clark and Subic. this went on for a long while after they both were abandoned.
Terimakasih sudah berbagi
🙏🤝🇮🇩👍💯❤
Wow Dimples a part of history thank you proud to be American as you are proud to be Pilepino proud of our leaders
nakkatakot tal;ga ingat lng sis dito lng ako
grabe talaga ang volcano eruption.
NBA games shown live here, thats what i remember
Hello Dimples I lived there in Angeles City during the eruption of Mt Pinatubo and also remember how bad things were and now I live in Cavite not too far from Taal vocano I hope it doesn't ever get like Mt. Pinatubo
I hope not, that would be bad. I know what it's like. It was horrible. Take care and enjoy the simple life in Philippines. Cavite is a beautiful place.
I wasn't even alive at that year but what a great history
Grabe nag explore kami jan overnight sa Abandoned Clark hospital ang daming Multo...
I was in Bangkok and we go ash there also.
No one can just say , jeepers creepers that’s a mighty blast !
i was working at Cindy's reataurant, maingate clark..when this happened..big explosion like mushroom cloud...
I can't imagine kung ano ang kalagayan at hirap na naranasan ng mga naapektuhan ng eruption na yan.
Ganda Ng Clark nong araw ma'am ano?
I was on USS ROANOKE AOR-7 and we were pulled out of the gulf along with USS ABARHAM LINCOLN AND A CRUISER To pick up dependents at subic for transfer to cebu.
Andyan kmi na time sa subic Zambales pagputok ng mt.Pinatubo sis
Kami rin. Salamat sa panonood sis.
I remember this vividly. there was so much Ash that covered the whole city and everybody had masks
How old were you at that time?
Janitor aq sa 13th air force medical center nung panahon n yan sayang lng cinira ng pinatubo kya d n naibllik ang clark dq akalain tlga n mgyyari yan nag aaral p aq sa holy angel sayAng n pangarap
time ng bata pa ako nag ashpool talaga pasok sa buong bhay nmin di kmi nalabas ng kulambo
hello host
Thank you
Dito napo ako sa maganda yong mansion
We were there from 1968-1973, and there was no activity at all. But we always wondered...what if? And now we know.
yes
Ito yong marami ding taong na pinsala noong sumabog ang mount pinatobo
Big news talaga yan nuon all over the world pa nga
nagflashback nga sa akin ung naexperienced namin jan sa Pinatubo nung pumutok ung din ung Taal sis. Nakakalungkot
Grabe talaga ang nangyari noong pumutok ang mt pinatubo. Nakikita talaga iyong apoy na bumabagsak kasama na ang buhangin at kidlat tapos uulan.
Kaya nung pumutok ang taal din naalala ko ang mt pinatubo.
It’s a shame that Clark and Subic AFB are closed now. We need them back esp now that China is a threat to the Philippines National Security.
nope we dont need US forces here in the PH
Para que?
don't worry about it..they are still here to protect the pearl of the orient island..and the seven sea of the world..
That was the whole point of having the bases to begin with 🇵🇭 was too greedy in their quest for funds in renewal agreement.
Subic was a Naval Air Station, not an AFB.
The order Reeeeeeeee was given when the base general looked at the mountain as it exploded
I was at Clark in 91 and now I live in Porac. Now Pinatubo is awake again. This mountain hates me. 🤷♂️
Grabe
tahnk you for sharing, Nag iwan n aqo ng mga kulay sa tahanan mo lods, sna ay mapuntahan muo aqo sa tahanan qo.
Final sign off during mt. Pinatubo on June 1991
I still have nightmares about it. I don’t know know why because by the time the mountain exploded, I was in subic. I just remember darkness and raining rock.
lodi dto nko sa bahay mo resbak ka nlang tnx..
