José Tagle y Santarin (March 18, 1855 – September 12, 1910) was a Filipino military officer who participated in the Battle of Imus during the Philippine Revolution.
Prior to the Philippine Revolution, the Tagles were part of the Principalía, the country's lowland, Hispanic colonized aristocracy.
[3] José Tagle played a significant role in the opening battle of the Philippine Revolution in Cavite.
The second time Aguinaldo met Tagle was on September 3, 1896, when the latter went to his headquarters to ask again for reinforcements against the impending attack by strong Spanish forces from Manila then massing off Bacoor.
The resulting battle ended in the defeat of the Spaniards by the Spanish General Ernesto de Aguirre, and the capture of his sword or sable del mando crafted in Toledo, Spain.
