4410WORLD WAR II IN THE PHILIPPINES. ALS. 3pg. 6†x 10 ½â€. June 6 1945. Philippine Islands. An autograph letter signed “Claude†an American GI stationed in the Philippines. He wrote on “United States Army†stationery to his friend John about fighting the Japanese: “Dear John Was sure glad to hear from you again Thanks for writing. A lot has happened since I last wrote - but I won't bore you with very much of them - Have seen quite a bit of action. Mostly fighting n razor back mountains either covered with grass or off on another part of the island covered with jungle - It seemed we moved from one land to another - such a change in terrain - I mean like thick jungles vines & dampness at one place & the other so open one could see for miles and miles - even watch the japs digging in miles away with our binoculars. We’ve had casualties but one has to expect some especially when fighting an offensive war - The japs being dug in so well it was almost a superhumanjob to clear out them - Rough going - guess I'm a lucky guy to be in the 60MM Mortar and light Machine Gun platoon - although we were hit some too. Lucky though just wounded were the boys. Well my Platoon Sgt. Went home with a bad ear - got infected someway or other and it really made life miserable for him - so now I'm acting in his compacity - I don't care much for the job but guess I'll have to string along until the end is over which I hope soon. Guess old Nick here was lucky - Had a few close one's too close for comfort. just hope my luck holds on. Guess as far as the point system goes - I'll be in the Army quite awhile yet. Only can figure out 69 points - Quite a jump to dig up 16 more And I've been in this Army 38 months already - Seems like half my life - When I get home I won't know how to act like a civilian - ha - I know one thing I'll have to learn to control my Army slang or else - I'm writing this in our rest area - although we aren't resting as yet - A lot of hard work to build it up & get it in shape first - Haven’t been her long - but it's a nice area - About like Fort Lewis. Pine trees - cold at night need three blankets still my pups get cold and now that the rainy season has set in it reminds me of Fort Lewis more so as we had so much rain there. Have one camp on a golf course - Been quite some time since I played golf - last tie in the Hawaiian Is. on the isle of Moloka! - More or less pasture. I'd send you a v-mail but as far as I know yet they go straight home with out being photographed and I don't think you'd want that kind. So am using the borderless airmail variety - No two cent overprints have showed up in this area as but if they do I'll remember you - Some of my other friends were asking about them too. Mr. Weltack has been sending me a first day cover now and then and I really appreciate it - as I have no way or time to bother with them. Hope I can continue after the war as I really get a kick out of FD. 's F.Fs F.AM's & all the other better covers. I belonged to the AAMS at one time and have been thinking about joining the MACC in the future. Its been a long time since I saw a good game of baseball- Was in 1939 I guess - In Chicago at the Cub park - The Cubs were playing the Giants at the time. My dad & cousin are great Cub fans but me I like to see a good game - The best men win - I used to play a little too. You know how young guys are - getting up a team & trying to lick the neighboring town teams a log of good clean fun. Well John write when you have time. I enjoy hearing from you. Best of Wishes Sincerely Claudeâ€. The letter is in fine condition. unknown books
1945WRCAM54321Philippines; Okinawa; San Diego 1945. 133 silver gelatin photographs most 2 1/2 x 4 inches but ranging from 2 1/2 x 2 1/2 to several 10 x 7 inches. Oblong folio. Black leatherette album strong tied. Light wear. Photos in corner mounts with many captions. Very good. A fascinating photographic account of military service in the Philippines compiled by a member of the 142nd U.S. Naval Construction Battalion the Seabees in 1945. Most of the images approximately three- quarters of the album were taken in Guiuan on Samar Island in the central Philippines where the photographer was stationed. Guiuan city square the Seabees' camp numerous portraits of local girls who sometimes pose with American soldiers local families and their activities native architecture and other local scenes. They also show the Immaculate Conception Church with shots of the exterior and detailed views of the silver altar - built in 1595 to 1844 but completely destroyed by Typhoon Haiyan in 2013. Several other photos evidently portray the album's compiler posing next to an American fighter plane while boiling sea shells in front of his tent etc. <br> <br> The final portion of the album contains photos taken during the operations aboard the USS "Monrovia" and "President Harris" in October-November 1945 including views of Okinawa on the way to China and snapshots of soldiers unloading cargo in the Yellow Sea China before returning to Manila. There are also eight clear views of Manila showing destroyed Japanese cranes and boats in the harbor American army headquarters and a warehouse. The album concludes with a few photos of the homeward voyage and shows soldiers discharged in San Pedro California. <br> <br> Overall a very good album depicting local life and the activities of the 142nd U.S. Naval Construction Battalion in the Philippines and Yellow Sea in the last months of the World War II. hardcover books
1944224221944. Olson Laverne Edwin vernacular photo album circa 1944-1946 documents U.S. Navy enlisted service across the Philippines and Hawaii during the final phase of World War II and the immediate postwar occupation period providing direct visual and documentary evidence of military presence local communities and wartime social life in the Pacific Theater. The album is anchored by Olson's official U.S. Navy Certificate of Satisfactory Service confirming duty from December 18 1944 through April 23 1946 situating the material within the aftermath of the U.S. return to the Philippines following the Leyte landings and the transition into occupation and reconstruction. The photographs support research into Pacific War military infrastructure American servicemen's daily life and interactions with local populations in recently contested and strategically critical regions.<br /> <br /> Album titled "Snapshots: The Philippines and The Islands of Hawaii" compiled circa 1944-1946 contains 25 items: 23 silver gelatin photographs one wallet-sized U.S. Navy Certificate of Satisfactory Service and one Roosevelt Commemorative Birthday Ball exchange coupon dated January 30 1946. Album measures approximately 4.5 x 3.5 inches with most photographs approximately 4 x 2.5 inches. Images include candid and landscape views from the Philippines likely including Leyte depicting rural villages shoreline activity docked naval vessels and local labor such as fishing and canoe transport. One photograph shows a group of Filipino children and young men gathered along a beach while another captures men and boys navigating shallow coastal waters in a canoe. Hawaiian images include group recreation scenes and coastal landscapes reflecting off-duty life within a major U.S. naval hub. The Roosevelt Birthday Ball coupon printed with the slogan "Dance That Others May Walk" provided access to multiple Honolulu venues and connects the album to wartime charitable campaigns supporting polio treatment through organized social events.<br /> <br /> Created during the closing campaigns of the Pacific War and the first year of U.S. postwar presence in the Philippines the album situates an enlisted sailor within a broader military and geopolitical transformation that included amphibious warfare territorial reoccupation and the reestablishment of American administrative and logistical systems. The Philippines served as a critical site of both combat and reconstruction while Hawaii functioned as a central staging and support base for naval operations. The inclusion of both official documentation and leisure-related ephemera demonstrates how military service encompassed bureaucratic recordkeeping mobility across strategic locations and participation in organized morale and fundraising activities tied to the American home front. Light wear to album covers minor handling and edge wear to photographs with images remaining sharp; service certificate shows toning and wear; pages largely intact. Overall very good condition. unknown
