The Haunted Hospital of Corregidor Social Sound System http://www.socialsoundsystem.com/ Supposedly the most haunted place on Corregidor. Either way, the whole island is a trip. People died here. A lot of people died here. This island was the last stand for the Americans after MacArthur bailed and Manila fell. Bullet holes and shell craters pock mark the entire island. After the Japanese bombed the hell out of it as the remaining troops lived a giant tunnel under horrible conditions, that's when they made them do the Bataan Death March. Serious shit went down there. Serious shit went down all over the Philippines under the Japanese. And to say they were liberating the Filipinos from the Americans is ludicrous (Although I wish someone would liberate the world from Bush today). But when the Americans came back in full force, they fought the Japanese down to the end here too. Both sides lost a lot of people. There is a ghost tour too where you can camp out on the island at night... No thanX. Tags: social sound system corregidor multos ghosts haunted WWII manila philippines |

Tower Guard at Corregidor Just your average tower shift at Corregidor, the closest thing we get to downtime. We learned to expect anything, anytime. Later they shot 2 RPG's at us...they missed. Tags: Corregidor Anbar Ramadi Iraq Animal Currahee |

The Story of the Defenders of Bataan and Corregidor - 1/6 "The Filipinos did most of the fighting and most of the dying..." This tells the "true story" behind the "forgotten war" of Bataan and Corregidor -- savage battles that violently hurled falsely reassured Filipinos and an ill-prepared Philippines into the Second World War in the Pacific. Produced by the Department of National Defense of the Philippines and the Philippines Veterans Affairs Office this series of videos documents the outstanding courage, heroism and nobility of Filipinos regardless the inevitable fall of the country to the unrelenting Imperial Japanese military juggernaut. An outcome inevitably irreversible despite the fierce resistance of the mostly Filipino and American defenders as the United States government relegated succor to the loyal but unwarily naive Philippine Commonwealth as secondary to America's commitment to her European allies. This historical account belies many of the myths that have long distorted the realities of Philippine American relations and a must for the serious student of history, geopolitics and military matters. On a lighter yet equally revealing note it also gives a glimpse of pre-war Manila and Philippine society. Tags: Legacy of Heroes Defenders Bataan Corregidor WW2 pacific war gilbertoy69 |
