By the way, here's the back story on the name of CPL. MAGDALENA.. With Courageous Cat/Five Silver Stars as the pedigree in mind, she’s named for the Silver Star winning Filipina-American WWII spy, the lone Asian-American woman to receive a Silver Star..
The Phillipine Historical Association honors Corporal Magdalena Leones with a resolution “to recognize the heroism of Magdalena Leones, and to proliferate her life and deeds among its membership composed of teachers and historians. And in doing so, they may be able to teach her inspiring story to the younger generation and to restore her as one of the known heroes of our nation.” Should be a movie: http://www.gmanetwork.com/news/lifes...-honors/story/
