Za751. Most of you know that I am a “Kraut” and came to the US in 1959 as a 17 year old. This is Col. Harald Klose, German Army, retired, he is a family friend and now has visited me the fifth year and we have visited Corregidor the fifth time together to commemorate the anniversary of the 503d PIR parachuting on to Corregidor on the 16th Feb 1945 and raising the first flag of liberation on that day. In this picture he stands next to #2 gun of Battery Wheeler, ex Fort Mills on Corregidor. He is 78, 2 years older than I but walks faster than I can!
