Much artillery fire today. Rumor that Corregidor shot down two planes. Some shrapnel in hospital. Patients still have not left. Everybody disappointed. Killed a young caribou [carabao] so had caribou [carabao] gravy and 3-4 pieces of meat. A smell caribow [carabao] divided among 1700 people doesn’t go very far.
