Luna's Department of War was transferred to Bayambang in June? 1898

Did you know that Gen. Antonio Luna (the tragic, irascible character in that popular Jerrold Tarog movie) set up camp in Bayambang months before his boss, Gen. Aguinaldo, arrived in our town? Google "Antonio Luna + Bayambang" if you want to see the various historical accounts.

But where exactly in Bayambang did he set up his Department of War? Why isn't there any marker whatsoever? (Just wondering out loud.)

Several references to the Luna-Bayambang connection can be found here. Just click Ctrl F and key in "Bayambang": http://www.quezon.ph/2015/12/11/luna-timeline/
