Andrew Lagonick was posted to the Philippine Islands in the era now known as "pre-war".  Of no particular skill or accomplishment, he lived the life of an average member of the Coast Artillery, being posted to batteries at Fort Drum.  He collected photos of his experiences, and compiled them in an album.  I do not know what happended to Andrew, although the photo album contains images from a visit in China, indicating that he may have been returning to the USA prior to the outbreak of the war.

 The album survived, and was loaned to me by Steve & Marcia Kwiecinski, who were residing on Corregidor as  "token Americans".  I scanned the album as it was, so thatI could remove the images and scan them individually. (I used the images, many of which were unique,  across a number of books - most notably LOST & FOUND - Unit Histories of Corregidor and Manila Bay.  The book reproduces the photo album as it then was, containing neither captions nor commentary.
