You were correct Ian about the regiment being comprised of native troops;the 73rd Regiment had 2 battalions of Jolo people, stationed in Manila, and in the field in Luzon & Mindanao.
They participated in the first major action against the Spanish for independence in the Battle of San Juan del Monte also known as the Battle of Pinaglabanan. |
