Memo from US Armed Forces to Philippine Army on San Jose Guerrillas, March 1946

Batangas History

30 Dec, 2017

The San Jose Batangas Guerrillas was another unit in the province of Batangas that fought the Japanese under the banner of the large guerrilla organization called Fil-American Irregular Troops, commanded by the former United States Army Col. Hugh Straughn until he was caught and executed by the Japanese. The San Jose unit was commanded by one Amado Masilungan. In this document¹, the United States Armed Forces in the Western Pacific, ostensibly on command of one General Styer, acknowledged receipt of the San Jose Batangas Guerrillas’ application for recognition as course to the Philippine Army.
