Zc526.Camp Dau, later called Camp Del Pilar, on the 5th Nov. 1944; provided by David Metherell. On this image David zoomed in and marked some landmarks. It seems most of the buildings are intact.

This was a large new Philippine Army installation and many future senior Philippine Army Officer must have went thru here for their artillery training.

I asked him to send another copy and try to indentify things on the picture.
