Early Corregidor Visits from Various Sources

#6 pictures shows an AA gun and I assume it was a Japanese one; I saw a similar gun frame on Corregidor but it was for two firing barrels. But I never saw this 3 barrel gun anywhere. The picture was original labeled: “SBM1962 Corregidor AA Gun”.

Established this album to post picture of early Corregidor visits from various sources.

————————————

This first batch of 7 Corregidor pictures was presented in a webpage, long gone now, of the Subic Bay Marines Barracks. I copied them and post them again with credit to Subic Bay Marines.

#1 picture shows Lorcha Dock and Malinta Hill from the north shore at Bottomside Corregidor. The picture was original labeled: “SBM1952pg1ApproachingCorregidor1”.

#2 picture I’m unable to recognize it accurately, but I’m fairly sure it is shot from an approach to Corregidor at the Northshore, Bottomside Corregidor. The picture was original labeled: “SBM1952pg2ApproachingCorregidor2”. Maybe someone else can?

#3 picture shows a plaque marker that doesn’t exist anymore, I guess this is located near the area of Lorcha Dock or between it and Malinta Hill. The picture was original labeled: “SBM1952pg1BillMartinonCorregidor”.

#4 picture shows a plaque marker that doesn’t exist anymore, I guess this is located near the area of Lorcha Dock or between it and Malinta Hill. The picture was original labeled: “SBM1952pg2MemorialPlaqueonCorregidor”.

#5 picture shows a navy craft moored to the former Fort Mills North Mine Dock on Corregidor, in back, across the North Channel we see Mount Mariveles. My guess is, that that craft is a Navy Tug, it must sucked up a few gallons of diesel if it came from Subic, but maybe it came from Cavite. The picture was original labeled: “SBM1952pg2TheBoattoCorregidor”.

#6 pictures shows an AA gun and I assume it was a Japanese one; I saw a similar gun frame on Corregidor but it was for two firing barrels. But I never saw this 3 barrel gun anywhere. The picture was original labeled: “SBM1962 Corregidor AA Gun”.

#7 picture is a last shot of Corregidor as the Navy craft is departing Corregidor from the Northshore, Bottomside, Corregidor. The picture was original labeled: “SBM1952pg1LeavingCorregidor”.
