MAAG Taiwan's Presence Still Found





















Photo found on the Internet.

The photographer sensed history when he framed this photo.

The American military presence is still seen in Taiwan.

This, scuffed shield, propped-up on an old chair, still radiates strong feelings of peace and quietness.

MAAG Taiwan should command a prominent display area inside the Taiwan Military Museum in Taipei.

Had MAAG Taiwan's thousands of US Military Advisors not arrived in the early 1950's, Taiwan's history would be much different today.

God Bless Taiwan....

UPDATE: - 4 October 2019

According to a note I saw while browsing on the Internet, the photo seen above was not the remains of a room in the old Sugar Building, BUT, it was a prop used in a Taiwanese Film..   

Anyone care to leave the name of the film. and possibly a link to see the film.
