Zc017. This is only the 2nd time that I could see Mount Arayat from Corregidor; the view is helped by the early eastern morning reddish light. The direction of the view is over Limay in Bataan, look at all the industry there-jobs!

Zc011

Zc011. Near the Malinta Hill are two small tunnels, perhaps better called “dugouts”, this is the smaller one, the more eastern one; big enough for a machine gun that could cover the north beach of Bottomside pretty good.

Zc010

Zc010. Near the Malinta Hill are two small tunnels, perhaps better called “dugouts”, one is smaller than the other but they are close together. An artillery gun or machine gun could cover the north beach of Bottomside.

Zc014

Zc014. Near the Malinta Hill are two small tunnels, perhaps better called “dugouts”, this is the bigger one, the more western one; big enough for a smaller artillery piece that could cover the north beach of Bottomside pretty good.

Zc006

Zc006. This is the Filipino Heroes Memorial on Corregidor Island at the west end of Water Tank Hill. Serious fighting occurred here in 1942 and 1945 during the siege and the liberation of Fort Mills on Corregidor Island.

Zc005

Zc005. A vessel, larger than the usual outrigger boats, is passing thru the Manila Bay South Chanel near the Caballo Island, the former Fort Hughes. The ships seldom steam that close by.

Zc009. West view of Corregidor roads from the Filipino Heroes Memorial, the left one goes thru Malinta Hill, the right one goes around in on the north side.

Zc008

Zc008. Today is the 7th of April 2018 and a few hours before the commemoration for the Tribute to all Filipino Veterans were held here. It is all unrigged and cleaned up by sailors of the Philippine Navy from Cavite Naval Base, GOOD JOB!!!!!!
