You are very welcome. Did you notice the main character was Filipino? It’s a very subtle reference at the end of chapter 13. Thanks for taking the time to listen to this passion project of mine. I’m just a regular guy with a passion for sound effects on audiobooks and of course for starship troopers. Please share with others! Take care.

@deaddropsd1972 Nope, I always pictured Spanish/Mexican but that's cool to know.

Thanks for taking the time to listen to this passion project audiobook from seven years ago. Did you happen to notice that the main character was Filipino? At the end of chapter 13 it is revealed that he speaks Tagalog. The language of the Philippines.

Thanks for taking the time to listen to this passion project from seven years ago. Did you catch the detail that the main character is Filipino? At the end of chapter 13 he reveals that he speaks Tagalog at home. Take care please share!

Thank you I hope you enjoyed this passion. Project of mine from seven years ago. I enjoy reading the feedback. Wow that guy two days ago sure, hated me lol

@@deaddropsd1972 Yeah, some people can never be pleased. I think the sfx were a good addition (especially the Bug sounds), albeit a bit jarring at the start. And the different accents were fun. All in all, I’d say it’s a good read of one of my favorite books. Take the negative comments with a grain of salt.

@@FRAG_TOSS thanks again for taking the time to listen to this passion project audiobook from seven years ago. Yes you’re definitely right not everyone can be made happy. I’m glad you enjoyed it. Of course I’m an amateur. Did you catch the detail at the end of chapter 13 that the main character is Filipino? He reveals that he speaks the language of Tagalog, which is the language of the Philippines. Take care and thanks again for taking the time to listen. Please share with other Science Fiction fans.

@@deaddropsd1972 Yeah, when I read the book for the first time it seemed like the character's dad at least was ethnic, but I never really picked upon that. Cool fact!

What is your PSN ?

Hello. I’ve been lazy lately. But I put my Venmo on the second book. Thanks for reminding me to get motivated. If you look up Robotech book to Battlecry, you will find my other channel. “Let me tell you something. “

Yup

Hallo wie gehts. I was stationed in Heidelberg 1996 & was shocked while reading the part when 2 recruits from Konigsberg & Heidelberg fight Zim! I also bought a German copy in Ramsteim 2020. I love Deutschland. Glad you enjoyed the book. Yes. He is Filipino! I am Filipino American. It is my favorite book of all time!!! I hope you liked the recall music 🎶!!!

@@deaddropsd1972 well, i thought it to be a nice touch, since Königsberg and Heidelberg both house the last two "Schlagende Studentengemeinschaft" ("beating fraternities"); all other universities, colleges AND highschools (how do you translage "Gymnasium" to english?) have that. Thus the question about the "scar" (to formalise the membership in the fraternity, they have to do a sword-fight (next to other combat-styls, like boxing), and get hit by an "elder" of the fraternity, that scar must be visible and is called "Schmiss" and is an everlasting sign that this dude belonged to the fraternity). Didn't get where Zim originated from, but apparently he knew that the two guys had a little "battle training"... I admire how right Heinlein had the facts when he wrote that book! Btw - yeah, germany was a nice country (live a few klicks south to the german border); germans ..well after you gotten used to them, they were ok. landscape was GREAT. but do yourself a favour and don't return there: where there was forrest (ya know, the real old "Märchenwälder" (forrests as described in fairytails) aso), you now have wind turbines, where the beautifull landscape was, there are photovoltaic-fields now, growing citys, and germans need even more patient to get used to them than before and the "climate" is about to be compared to the old GDR (think twice before mentioning something against current situation there, might win some one-way-ticket, destination NOT home)..... it's a real shame what happened to that country the recent 3 years. who'd thought of the green party - the notoric enviro-protectors - would take down whole forrests to build wind turbines, dry out swamp-areas for PV-fields, and reinstate a stasi-like NGO that does the same as the stasi in the GDR to protect people from speaking about this insanity.... damn.... As Heinlein wrote in the country. This is the risk of the "unlimited franchise". (worse comes to worst: they even do the same sh...t here in Switzerland..... my village had such a beautifull forrest - it is gone, two wind turbines standing where the trees were; and what happend? exactly like the "worse than hitler"-people (i was one of 'em) said: we do not have a strong and consistent enough wind to make these turbines turn fast enough to produce elec. power.... we had a little creek (forrest gone - no more water in it) in the village that was artificially streighend; it could have been "renaturalised" with a little "eddy current power plant" (not sure if it's translated correctly). ..ironically, those people who spoke out against the wind-turbines were all either serving military, civil defence, firefighters, police or in medical services and have seen the insanity behind the idea......) Starship Troopers should be mandatory read in all schools tbh....

Gymnasium for Americans is just gym I am sorry for those negative changes and experiences. Yes, lots of change. I am glad you enjoyed my audiobook production. It’s fun to see comments from people all over the world. I really wish we could have a system like starship troopers. There’s just too much wild crime out there. Politicians making decisions about war when they have never been to war Idiots voting without any sort of social qualifications. Oh well. We have to try to make things better. I hope you are doing well in Switzerland? I was there in 1996?& 2020. I loved it of course. Luzern. Pilatus. Jungfrau. Wengen. ❤️. I am in San Diego California. Be well 👊🏽

@@deaddropsd1972 since i have "access to knowledge" right now: gym is the fitness-center, gymnasium the european thing between highschool and college? ans you're right: politicians wanting war, knowing very well that they themselves nor their children ever will have to see "firsthand" what war is, since they'll all be well hidden in a giant shelter capable sustaining life for 50 and more years aso... and well - switzerland still exists. not sure how long tbh, lots of sellouts in politics, driving us into thte hands of EU and NATO... (no better time than today, bc tomorrow both organisatons will be at war, right? except maybe we should - if/when - wait for the day after tomorrow to see if they made it through the war, and so WE avoid being part of that war. i'm all in for neutrality - switzerland was a warfaring country until we learned our lessions. which the politicians didn't do: learn from history)

Glad you enjoyed this passion project of mine. I really like music 🎶 for recall …. FYI. Juan Rico is Filipino! Revealed at end of Chapter 13 to speak Tagalog back home…. Please SHARE

Glad you enjoyed it!

I am glad you enjoyed it. I think the music for recall when the troops are evacuating is a critical detail that has never been given enough attention. Did you know that the main characters Filipino? It is revealed that the end of chapter 13 that he speaks Tagalog.

There’s a choose your own adventure book that I was considering reading… Set in the universe

DEAD-DROP

Hello. Yes I am Filipino American. I was 22 when I read this book. I am now 52. I was in the US Army for 30 years. It influenced my life decisions. I was a young soldier who gradually became an officer. I was infantry. I was medical. But the book is my favorite of all time and influenced me greatly throughout my life. I messed up on the pronunciation of Ramon Magsaysay my mother corrected me after my production. Anyway, the book is very special to me. I hope you enjoyed the sound effects and the music for recall. Everybody needs to be educated to know the true story of the book. Personally, I really wish we had this system. I know it’s not going to happen. But I would love a system where the streets were definitely more safe and murderers were dealt with quickly. I’m glad you enjoy the project

@@deaddropsd1972 as a swiss who did his military service, seeing how people who didn't "do service to society" are currently ruining everything, i can just 2nd your sentence about wishing to have that system. too many voters here in switzerland do not vote for what's best for the country and its people, they a) blindly vote what media tells them to, b) vote for what's most convenient for themselves (and not for the greater good). it's ...almost as Robert Heinlein wrote in the book about why the system collapsed... i truly fear we're short of collapsing here in europe...

I don’t think we will ever figure that out. I know some populations are not having enough kids and they are having a problem supporting the next generation. Japan is having this problem and they are having to change the rules on immigration. Think the most modern civilized advanced countries are not having enough kids. The worst primitive backwards, corrupt violent countries are having lots of kids. Those kids are, entering the other countries that are nicer and sometimes bringing them down.

@@deaddropsd1972 actually we can just see it. almost to no positive birth-rates in the western world, but in the so called "3rd world", now look at the migrant-waves and where they come from... no positive birth-rates for giving control to the people (in certain us-states an "abortprocedure" is allowed right up to the birth of the child), ...rest as you described. only: immigration not solving a thing, bc those arriving in the country getting the same instruments, and suddendly chose to no longer have children... = exactly as Heinlein described...

Hope you enjoyed

Zim

Thank you I’m currently in the middle of a Robotech project.

Thanks! Did you know Rico was Filipino?

​@@deaddropsd1972I did not. I did love all of the accents and sound effects.

Did you know Juan Rico is Filipino? End of Chapter 13 he says he speaks Tagalog.

8:28:16. Rico mentions Tagalog. Juan Rico is Filipino

I hope you like it! The sound effects and Recall music are my favorites. Did you catch Rico’s ethnicity?

Interesting.? Lol I started stranger in a strange land 20 years ago, but I never finished it. Did you like starship troopers? Did you know the main character Filipino? I hope you like the sound effect music that I added? Especially recall.

You did great! Still listening. Stranger in a strange land, i think lesbians were ok. It is the whole lazurus dude. Living for 2000 years. It spans across several books. All chuck full of amazing stuff, but still cringy.

@@spymonkey39 Yes, for me it did not hold up. Which is why I’ve never gone back to finish it.

Something about mars being heaven. Got semi interesting. And, the characters come back around in other books. When many all met in one book. That made it worth it. Oh, and the one with bisexual dragons. Just a funny quirk of 1 planet.

@@spymonkey39kinky! 😂

Do you agree? Yes, we are too spoiled… I think it’s very true. I hope you like the audiobook Did you know the main character was Filipino? At the end of chapter 13 he mentions speaking Tagalog at home. I hope you liked the music and sound effects, especially the sound of recall when the troops are evacuating…

Oh, I never did realize his nationality. I always figured somewhere in South America. Nice catch.

I hope you liked the sound effects & recall music 🎶. Did you know Rico was Filipino? End of Chapter 13 he mentions Tagalog

Yes. I am slowly working on book number three. Book number two is available on my other channel. I posted the link here. Just look up Robotech audiobook number two battle cry.

@@deaddropsd1972 how do I find that can you provide a link?

@@deaddropsd1972 I just found it thank you. GREAT JOB!

@@vincentmurace1091. CooL. You have motivated me!!

Hey buddy! I’m glad you enjoyed. I am Filipino American US Army reserves 30 years. The book has always been very special to me. I read it in 1995 when I was a soldier. It helped me avoid early marriage and encouraged me to become an officer. Please share with other Filipinos lol! Share the truth about Johnny Rico!

@@deaddropsd1972hahaha! Juan Rico has always been my Moniker on social media. And absolutely! Hopefully when they decide to make an accurate adaptation, I’ll be the one to play the actor

@@panzern777awesomeness!!!
