Zd154. Flickr 031. Rg111 box 543026. This is a very rare picture of some of the Malinta Hill west side on Corregidor Island showing the Navy Tunnels. It is a captured photo, found in the Japanese side and we can assume it is from 1942. It shows the entrance of three of the Navy 5 tunnel entrances in Malinta Hill. All these three entrances are buried now from landslides. Two more Navy Tunnel entrances are further to the right in a ravine, not too far, and are accessible now; one is difficult to get into now though. I believe we have this picture, or a very similar one, already somewhere in the Corregidor Forum, click here:
