Januario Galut
Male, Person
Who is Januario Galut?
Considered by some to be a Tingguian mercenary, and by others as merely a local villager, Januario Galut was the man who led U.S. troops to a position from which they could surround and defeat the forces of Gen. Gregorio del Pilar in the Battle of Tirad Pass.
Galut has been considered a traitor among Filipinos. The Igorot peoples, of which Galut was one, were also subject to much discrimination by lowlanders so it has been questioned why they should have felt loyalty to the revolutionary government.
The only documentation linking him to the above action is in the testimony of the U.S. Texas Regiment which participated in the battle.
