The Philippines During WWII

Autograph Letter Signed, "Gene." Four pages, 5" x 8". Philippines. March 23, 1945. The letter reads, in part:
' " The people here are very friendly and generally speak good English the best part of it here is that we can hire our laundry done & fairly cheap too. We had to change our money to Pesos & Centavos because they don't use American money here ... Since we landed her we've had one air raid and that's all we've seen of them since . While the Japs were here they forced the Filipinos to work for money which they printed and when they left the money automatically became worthless ... I hope by now your snow is gone ... it must have been an awful winter. I'd gladly give up all of this for it though " ' Extremely Fine.
