In June 1991, the Philippines’ Mount Pinatubo erupted after more than five centuries, decimating the U.S. Air Force’s Clark Air Base, the Navy’s Subic Bay Naval Base and the surrounding countryside.  A Fine Gray Rain tells a true account of that catastrophic event and the months leading up to it at Clark Air Base, a virtual paradise.
