Good day all. Taking a break from the memoir writing of UV AARs, I was wondering if anyone there can be of help.

My father was just here for a visit. Earlier today was the first time he saw the concept of a search engine and was like the proverbial kid in the candy store. He is very interested in the subject of Corregidor, and thought he had a lot of information on the subject (12 whole books and two movies, by golly!). Needless to say, 1500+ hits later he was asking for a print of this, can you get that picture printed (a photo tour of the Malinta tunnel nearly blew him away), etc.

If anyone has a good site for information of that period (fall of the Philippines) and perhaps a site that would sell reproductions of WWII - era posters relating to the fall, I'd appreciate it. Feel free to e-mail at the addy on profile.

Thanks ahead of time

Phil

To begin with, here's a good site on the history of the Philippine Scouts, which should give you some good links to other sites: http://www.philippine-scouts.org/History/history.html.

Here's an article called "The Siege and Capture of Corregidor": http://www.ibiblio.org/hyperwar/USMC/I/USMC-I-IV-3.html
