From a negative made on the spot the day of the "brave feat of arms," when a great body of Moros, men, women and children, were killed by the army under Gen. Wood; "a logical incident in the sequence of events which will include the whole history of the Philippine posessions."http://www.thewilyfilipino.com/images/buddajo.jpg Quote Link to comment
papaydsailor Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 U.S. troops surrender to the Japanese at Corregidor in the Philippine Islands, May 6, 1942. A total of 11,500 Americans and Filipinos became POWs, including the commander, Lt. Gen. Jonathan Wainwright. POWs from Corregidor and Bataan were among the worst treated. May 6, 1942.http://www.historyplace.com/unitedstates/pacificwar/2129.jpgAFTER THIS DAY You Young blood maniac mtc must see the real history of OLD MANILAMy WebpageThe Japanese Occupation(Be advised: Pictures are very Graphic) Quote Link to comment

papaydsailor Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Vividly illustrating the condition of burned-out, battle-scarred Manila, as U.S. engineers and thousands of Filipinos begin the huge task of reconstruction, is this aerial view looking southwest across the Pasig River toward hulks of sunken ships in the harbor. Tall building, left foreground, is gutted, Eastern Hotel, center, across river, is burned out, general post office, extreme left, across river is Metropolitan Opera House in ruins. Battered wall of Intramuros, Walled City, and destroyed buildings inside, occupies rectangular area beyond post office. Left is demolished Santa Cross Bridge, repaired by Army engineers. The streets have already been cleared of rubble.http://img216.imageshack.us/img216/7228/ph00835l7ox.jpg Quote Link to comment
