Karl,
Your comment "they apparently tried very hard to stay out of harm’s way," appears to be the only logical explanation that fits all the known facts. It must have been that they hid during the daylight hours. I have read in the letters that they would come out only at night, and were particularly careful to leave no evidence of their presence, or of their stealing food.
A letter from YOKOTA, Yoshiaki in my possession states that after the fight at Malinta Hill on the night of the 19th, he was one of those who withdrew to the airfield. On the night of Feb 21, "many swam to Battery Point." "Feb 22 - Many small units got together." "March 10 - Order came from the top to go to Bataan. Injured people stayed on Corregidor." "May 1945 - 20 people who were alone decided to live together."
This indicates that they were not as a group at the time that the photographer took the images.

Does anyone have a photo of Monja from a different angle? I noticed a pock mark on the right side of the ceiling from the NA photo. I think it would be easier to say Monja with certainty if there was a matching mark.
I didn't get to Monja on my last trip and last I was there, I had no flash on my camera, so I have no such photo.

Hi Pierce,
I looked for that mark earlier in my photos and did not see it in either of the two dome shaped magazines at Monja. However, only one photo was taken close to the rear wall to rule that one out 100%.
