Dungcas Beach

I recently discovered that our backyard, Dungcas Beach, is where 5,000 Japanese landed on 10 December 1941 to capture the island. Afterwards, they expected the Americans to attack here as well, so they lined the beach with mines, torpedoes, and other explosive devices, but the Americans chose to attack at a different spot. Until 1965, after the war, the location was an EOD post in order to clear out all the leftover explosive devices found on location.
