| In the Spirit of MacArthur, a C-130J transport plane of the United States Air Force has returned the Balangiga bells to the country 117 years after it was taken in 1901 during the American-Philippine War at Balangiga Town in Eastern Samar. |
 |
| The return was made possible after President Donald Trump promised President Rodrigo Duterte of its return to the country. |
The Americans still refer to it as the Philippine Insurrection, because the United States (and the rest of the world at the time) did not recognize the independence of the First Philippine Republic, and thus it did not recognized Aguinaldo's declaration of war.
