youfunnyguy! It also says that there are gorillas on that island, and we all know what Jane Goodall cut out of her films. Masbate gorillas.

OTOH, ok, duh, it does seem to appear American, I wonder what ever gave them a reason to question it's origin?

My brother-in-law is one of the chief Civil Engineers working for the US Military over at Fort Huachuca, Az. that was in charge of all the testing and flight controls of the unmanned pilot programs that started 20 yrs. ago. He's just about ready for retirement, but is still over there after all these years. He was in the US Army for 8 yrs previously, then went for his Engineering degree and ended up doing this for most of his career.
