Comments

  • There is an area of Calumpit which was made a certain stage in a video game named "Medal of Honor: Rising Sun", an American-developed World War 2 game. There is the typical plaza, church, a palace, a football field, an amphitheater, a store with a signboard which read "Aling Teresita's Pandesal", and another sign "Watusi". Also, there is a large billboard near the football field which read "Uminom ng San Jose!" The title of that stage in the game is "Calumpit Chaos". Try the game. It's quite interesting to see the historical aspect of Calumpit during World War 2..
  • Did it show also the longest bridge in the world?
