Very poetic... seems a bit biased however. One could just as easily say its a graveyard of the horrors of war and not include the MacArthur quoute...
- The big guns of Corregidor are now silent and the ruins of buildings, structures, and tunnels in the island tell a very moving story of a war that has claimed so many lives. A visit to this former battleground is a memorable experience especially for those who cherish and value peace and freedom. In his speech delivered at the signing of the surrender of Japan aboard the USS Missouri at Tokyo Bay on September 2, 1945, General Douglas MacArthur said, "It is my earnest hope and indeed the hope of all mankind that a better world shall emerge out of the blood and carnage of the past - a world founded upon faith and understanding, a world dedicated to the dignity of man and the fulfillment of his most cherished wish for freedom, tolerance and justice."

Proposed expansion
[edit]I am planning a significant expansion of this article, at least listing all the batteries at the fort. I have previously done numerous articles on US forts, an example of which is Fort McKinley (Maine). RobDuch (talk) 22:14, 10 March 2018 (UTC)
