Camp Jossman Headquarters - Guimaras Attractions

Camp Jossman Headquarters

Camp Jossman Headquarters is located in Supang, Buenavista, Guimaras.

 

In 1901 to 1912, Barangay Supang was under the captivity of the Americans under the leadership of Gen. Douglas MacArthur. They needed a reservation camp, and so they established Camp Jossman.

 

A regiment of American soldiers and two batallions of the Philippine Scouts took refuge in this facility while constructing the Sto. Niño wharf.

 

There are many recreation centers that were established in this place. However, in 1912, an order from the US high command arrived to vacate Camp Jossman and return to the US. All the structures then that were established were all demolished.

 

Today, Camp Jossman Headquarters is used as a water reservoir by Water District of Buenavista.
