A three years exile in Boston: Ninoy lectured in Harvard, 
wrote extensively, and dreamt of coming home.

 

 

August 21, 1983. The people's truly loyal to
Ninoy waiting outside the airport , not  aware to the 
fate of  the man soon will be destined to greatness!

 

 

In the last few moments of his life, Aquino cheerfully greets as one of the 
security men who escorted him from flight 811.

 

 

Guard grabs Ninoy's arm to steady him as he climbs over an obstruction in the aisle

 

 

 

As they lay dead or dying in the sun amid a flurry of trigger 
touching terror, a hero was born.
