Lately I have been reading "OPERATIONS OF COMPANY E QT WHEELER POINT 23 FEB 1945" (http://corregidor.org/503_hill/Ops_E_Co_23_Feb_01.htm)
(1) Are there any detailed maps still existing that let us know where the caves and bunkers etc are that are mentioned in that article?
(2) At Wheeler Point, "A fortified tunnel entrance at point 7. (Map B) This tunnel led back to the underground magazine of Crockett and Wheeler Batteries".
The author seems confident in what he says but I have tramped all over Batteries Crockett and Wheeler and I would expect tunnels to the magazines to be fairly obvious. At Battery Monja, there are the two short collapsed entrances out to the South Shore road but no other tunnels were seen in the immediate area. Does anybody know if these tunnels really exist?
