Ultimately, Delmendo demonstrates how the effects of US imperialim in the Philippines continue to resonate in US foreign policy in the post-Cold War era and the war on terrorism;  Back to Bataan, a World War 11 movie starring John Wayne; During a ceremony held in 1996 to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of formal Philippine independence, the US flag was being raised, and the two became entangled.
