In View Of The Historical Significance Of Clark Air Base In The Philippines, I Felt I Could Not In A Single Painting Tell The Story I Wished To Tell. As A Result, I Have Chosen Numerous Scenes On And About The Base, Some Of Which Date Back As Far As The Turn Of The Century When CAB Was Then Known As Fort Stotsenburg, Home Of The 8th United States Cavalry. I Chose 13 As The Number Of Icons That Form The Border As Clark AB Is The Home And Headquarters Of The 13th Air Force. In The Center Is An F-102 Delta Dagger Of The 405th Fighter Wing. The Hot Orange Background Color Was Selected In My Attempt To Convey The Hot Tropical Sun That Is So Prevalent To The Philippines.
