Zf802. 30. Aerial view of the area, 1946, west of the former WWII Guiuan Naval Air Station, Air Base in East Samar, Philippines. This picture is from NARA. This was the heart of the Navy establishment; this area became the Guiuan Town of today. That bridge went to an island (bridge is destroyed now, weather) which was used as the Naval Receiving Station with several thousand sailors waiting for their ships or left ships to go on. In 1949 that island and the former Naval Receiving Station was used to house White Russian refugees from Red China.
