Philippines went medalless in 1936 berlin Olympics

The second World War that hovered above when Berlin hosted the 11th Olympic Games in 1936, finally broke out in the years that followed obliterating the holding of the Games as originally scheduled in Tokyo in 1940 and London in 1944.

In 1948, despite endless rain, food rationing, housing shortages, and the damage wreaked by Adolf Hitler’s bombs, London managed to stage the post war “austerity Olympics.”
