On October 26, 1901, General Troadio Galicano surrendered to the United States in Barili, Cebu with 115 troops and 10 rifles (one of which was the Japanese Murata rifle). Entering the seminary to pursue priesthood, his studies would be interrupted by the outbreak of the Philippine Revolution. Starting as an officer under General Arcadio Maxilom, Galicano would eventually be promoted as general as well, setting camp in his hometown Carcar.
During the American period, he would finish law in 1906 and become elected as Cebu representative the next year. He would later serve as senator of the Philippines, being elected to the post in 1925. Learn more about the Philippine Revolution in the Visayas:
