Battery Way Mortar & a Japanese Visitor
maryan54 > albums > Corregidor Valor Memories
Album Info:
Battery Way continued firing all morning despite a rain of shells dropping into the pit, seriously wounding Major Massello and causing 70 percent casualties amongst its gun crews. At about 11:00AM, its breech block froze, warped by the heat from constant firing: the last of Corregidor's "concrete artillery" to cease fire before the surrender at 12:00 noon.
