Terrain handbook 35: Mindoro Island (Philippine series)

About this record

This restricted military document was published by General Douglas MacArthur’s Allied Geographical Section on October 28, 1944, just weeks prior to the Allied invasion of Mindoro on December 15, 1944. Created for operational planning and intelligence purposes, the handbook provides detailed intelligence on Mindoro's coastline, landing beaches, roads, airfields, rivers, and population centers to facilitate the Allied re-conquest of Luzon and the liberation of the Philippines.

The book is considered valuable. It is advised that researchers use digital copy rather than physical books for preservation purposes.
