Scrapbook, visit to the Philippines

Creator:
Kilbourne, Charles E. (Charles Evans), 1872-1963
Scope and content:

This scrapbook contains photographs and clippings that document Charles E. Kilbourne's return visit to the Philippines at age 82. It contains a handwritten foreword (available online) written by Kilbourne in which he details his long relationship with the Philippine Islands during his United States Army career and his role in the creation of the Correidor tunnel system (Malinta Tunnel).

Charles E. Kilbourne inadvertently wrote the date 1953-54 in this scrapbook; however, the trip took place in late 1954 and early 1955.
