Meet Francisco Chargualaf, Carlos Bahe and Benito from 1839.
On January 1, 1839, the D’Urville expedition had made a second visit to the Mariana Islands. It was during this visit when Pierre-Marie Alexandre Dumoutier, a Naturalist and prenologist molded some busts of CHamoru men. These three photos of the busts were taken by Jacques-Philippe Potteau and have been digitally archived at the Museum National D’Histoire Naturelle in France. I retrieved these thumbnail photos from their website for education and research purposes.
COMING OF AGE IN WAR-TORN GUAM: The WWII Memoirs of Justo Torre Leon Guerrero

Håfa Ådai Family & Friends,
I am reaching out for your help to support Jillette Leon Guerrero, my relative, friend and fellow historian/genealogy collaborator of the CHamoru Roots Genealogy Project on her upcoming book release, “COMING OF AGE IN WAR-TORN GUAM: The WWII Memoirs of Justo Torre Leon Guerrero.” Proceeds of this effort are to donate copies of the books to middle, high school, college libraries and other nonprofit organizations on Guam. This is real history by someone who has lived and experienced it.
From my personal interviews with some elders, my late father, Eustaquio Anderson Punzalan served with Justo (Uncle Tutu) and both retired from the U.S. Air Force. They were part of several cohorts of CHamoru men that enlisted in the Air Force after experiencing being prisoners of World War II at home, and then later obtaining citizenship from the Guam Organic Act of 1950. They were exclusively trained on Guam and then released on world-wide assignments to serve, protect and defend the United States.
I am quite anxious to read about Uncle Tutu’s memoirs and learn about his experiences and the experiences of the CHamoru people.
Biba Uncle Tutu and Jillette Leon-Guerrero! Na’lå’la i sinangan CHamoru!
