Red laminate boards and spine with bright black lettering on the spine and front board; frontis photo of Japanese retiring the US colors after surrender of Corregidor. 293 pp 4to. The author lived on Corregidor for 10 years and was the Curator of the Pacific War Memorial Museum. He has interviewed hundreds of Corregidor defenders from the Army, the Marines, the Navy and the Army Air Corps along with many Filipinos who were acquainted with Corregidor before and after World War II. The author is probably the only living person with a great depth of knowledge about what really happened on Corregidor and especially to the USMC detachment. There has never been a book devoted to the particulars concerning the defense of Corregidor. Because of major voids in the official and accepted history of the battle, even the US Government's official history is "unofficial" at best. Over the past 20 years, the author has assembled and studied the world's largest resource library on the subject. With the loss of the island fortress and the loss of almost all official records followed by public relations spin and personal embellishments, no one has been able to bring the complete story to view, until now. A clean pristine copy. Signed by Author(s).…

Howe (October 31, 1922 - August 13, 2007). He achieved a Bachelor's Degree from Middlebury College in 1945 after being interrupted to serve his country during World War II. Mr. Howe served in the U.

FM 21-100, Soldier's Handbook, is published for the information and guidance of all concerned. Its purpose is to give the newly enrolled member of the United States Army a convenient and compact source of basic military information and thus to aid him to perform his duties more efficiently. From the Foreword: You are now a member of the Army of the United States. That Army is made up of free citizens chosen from among a free people. The American people of their own will, and through the men they have elected to represent them in Congress, have determined that the free institutions of this country will continue to exist. They have declared that, if necessary, we will defend our right to live in our own American way and continue to enjoy the benefits and privileges which are granted to the citizens of no other nation. It is upon you, and the many thousands of your comrades now in the military service, that our country has placed its confident faith that this defense will succeed should it ever be challenged. In the transition from civil life to the life of a soldier you may, at first, feel somewhat confused. It is the purpose of this handbook to help you over these rough spots as rapidly as possible and to lay the foundations for your successful career as a soldier. Making good as a soldier is no different from making good in civil life. The rule is the same and that Is know your own job and be ready to step into the job of the man ahead of you. Promotion is going to be very rapid in this Army. Be ready for it. You will have little time to learn the duties of a noncommissioned officer after you become one. You will be expected to know those duties and show that you know them. At a moment's notice you may have to take charge of your squad as a corporal and in a critical hour. In the same way when you are a sergeant you cannot tell under what conditions and at what hour you may have to take the place of your lieutenant. You want to know what is expected of you and be ready to do it. The things that a trained soldier must know, and the way in which they are done, will be taught you as rapidly as you can absorb them. The basic military information is described and explained in this handbook so that it may be available constantly to you during the first weeks of your service. By mastering the contents your future progress will be much more rapid. In making yourself an efficient soldier you are helping to build a defense for our country that nothing can destroy. You are repaying your obligation to the United States for all the benefits of the past and are declaring your faith in our future. If you will make a part of yourself the following characteristics of the good soldier, you will be doing your part in upholding the glorious reputation of the Army of the United States.
