MINEFIELD

 
21 Feb 45. The Co. went out to clean Japs out of ravine below the big gun position and to clean the caves along the water's edge. A field artillery and mortar preparation was fired before the company moved out and at 0830 the company moved into the ravine. About a third of the way down the ravine four Japs were found hiding under a culvert and killed.  Two more were found in a pillbox further down the trail and killed. A Jap water point was found which was much better than former points. As the patrol continued down the trail barbed wire entanglements and land mines were encountered. Six Jap anti-aircraft guns were found. About twenty well-armed Japs were encountered in a cave along the water's edge.
