I visited Subic Bay in transit back in the 80's. Went to town with a friend -- and even I was stunned. You could walk, maybe, ten feet before yet another very attractive young lady would make her pitch.

Now in SH3, they have a band playing and wellwishers waving as you depart in a U-Boat. I've often thought in SH4 that the pier in Manilla should be crowed shoulder to shoulder with ladies of the evening as a fleet boat departs!

I spent a lot of time at Subic in 1970. Sure there were girls in Olongapo, but I don't recall seeing anything like that on the docks, or on base.

But I'm old, and the memory is faulty.
Oh, I know, I didn't see anything like that on base either for the brief time I was there.....just a little artistic licence was all I was suggesting. Since you can't get into town in the game, bring the town to the docks.
