Americans Press Filipinos Along Jungle Track
General MacArthur and staff marched along the track with quiet troops when a sudden volley from sharpshooters in trees and on rooftops broke out. Despite three entrenched lines, Filipinos offered light resistance as jungle cover hindered visibility. American artillery was limited by the same obstacle. Camp fires lit the night as the Twentyeth Kansas regiment stood to the left.
