Looking at the rice field is really relaxing. The main crop in San Leonardo, Nueva Ecija is rice. Nueva Ecija is known as the "Rice Granary of the Philippines". Let's enjoy this driving tour from San Leonardo to Cabanatuan City.

*Correction: Nagaño Street is part of Barangay Nieves NOT Barangay Mambangnan. Apologies.

During World War II, Imperial Japanese forces sacked San Leonardo in 1942 during the opening stages of the Japanese Occupation. Novo Ecijano and HUKBALAHAP Communist guerrilla resistance groups from 1942 to 1944 in the town fought the invaders, with liberation coming in 1945 by the allied troops.

From January to April 1945, the combined military force of the Philippine Commonwealth Army, Philippine Constabulary, and the United States Army recaptured and liberated the town. The joint forces assisted the Novo Ecijano and HUKBALAHAP Communist resistance groups and defeat the Japanese soldiers and officers under the Imperial Japanese Armed Forces and the Makapili soldiers and begins the Battle of San Leonardo and the Battle of Gapan between the Japanese and the combined American and Philippine Commonwealth troops on January to April 1945 and ended World War II.
