Cpl Technician Albert B. Blake

These photos were taken by my father during his time in the 79th Army Engineers Construction Battalion, between 1942 and 1945. He was part of "MacArthur's return" to the Philippines, and came under fire as his unit hit the beaches of these Pacific Islands.

Hope you find this group of photos interesting. Please contact me via email if you recognize any of the unidentified soldiers in this set, or knew my Dad. He passed away August 10, 1999 at age 75.

Thank you for viewing this set.
