THE RETAKING OF CORREGIDOR

AN OUTLINE OF EVENTS AT WHEELER POINT ON 18 AND 19 FEBRUARY 1945		- More years ago than I'm sure he cares to remember, John Lindgren felt the compulsion to get to the bottom of what happened that night at Wheeler Point. This article was his starting point, and though he resolves some old questions, new ones are sure to arise. This won't be the final word on the topic, but for the moment we bring it to you perhaps as your starting point towards understanding "The Battle at Banzai Point."

`"The Letter"`		`When Jim Mullaney found the remains of a long dead US Defender in Corregidor's long grass he didn't realize that his own personal "mopping-up" wouldn't end until 50 years later when he decided to send"The Letter".`
"ON TO CORREGIDOR - WITH THE 2nd ESB."		- The landing craft unit which made the Corregidor landings was Co. "F", 532nd Engineer Boat and Shore Regiment of the 2nd Engineer Special Brigade. Here's how the landing was made.
"Operation TopsidE" PICTORIAL		- On 16 February 1945, the 503rd PRCT dropped in to the most dangerous designated drop zone of WW2.

Photographic prints from the original negatives are available from Fred Hill, Photosmith.
