S567 Japan WWII Philippines dispatch KAKI6558 corps to Kyoto The date of arrival is filled in as 19.4.6 (1944). This letter is posted in January from the Philippines. 

Part of the text reads "that intense on a southern island here fighting has started. TAGAROGU fellows live here. On the road, children are playing.  There are also many people who speak Japanese well. We can also speak about the language of TAGAROGU. The joint entertainment of Japan and the Philippines was sponsored by my garrison on January 5. I did the role which passes a performer a prize. The men of the Philippines liked the song and the dance....on Sunday that our corps and residents do the game of baseball."

5 Sheets of enclosure on this lot and I am only illustrating one. Printed lettersheet used in the Philippines. The drawing does not necessarily mean that it is of the Philippines. It  is a typical South East Asian country scene. Letter contents very interesting.
