A large number indeed, under the provisions of a treaty. It's one of the larger streams of immigrants from the Philippines by the time family comes in. Lots of Pinoy spoken around Navy towns, and Filipinos in clerical and mess ratings are new Navy recruits' first exposure to these guys and their distinctive, strangely musical, accents.
