Zd218. Flickr 055. This image has no SWPA-Sig. number nor is the description clear as to where and when of this combat action took place. But I recognize the Fort ills South Mine Dock and better yet, I recognize the San Jose Point, the south end of Malinta Hill on Corregidor. And we the South-Road going around Malinta Hill. The artillery piece is pointing west towards Breakwater Point and the beaches in between.

I assume this is on Corregidor. It seems, a charge was set off or a grenade were thrown into a tunnel with Japanese soldier occupants.

Zd224. Flickr 061. The partial description seems to be talking about the USS Intrepid CV-11 under attack as observed from the USS New Jersey. The following paragraph is copied from Wikipedia: A Japanese air raid on 25 November struck the fleet shortly after noon. Two kamikazes crashed into Intrepid, killing sixty-six men and causing a serious fire. The ship remained on station, however, and the fires were extinguished within two hours. She was detached for repairs the following day, and reached San Francisco on 20 December.
