The guerillas were there!

Mr. Pontaoe,
I beg to disagree with you about the guerilla de lata because your basics are wrong.
Are you aware of the exploits of Lt. Edwin Ramsey and his guerilla outfits in Luzon and Pangasinan. In his book, Lt. Ramsey’s war, it was on the morning of January 5, 1945, when MacArthur’s forces (280,000 strong) arrived in Lingayen Gulf where they pounded the shoreline and the following day, the sixth army under General Kruger hit the beaches.
By then, the Japanese, under Gen Yamashita (275,000) had withdrawn to the mountains. General MacArthur himself waded thru the beach where a handful of guerillas were on shore and went towards them and they sent up a cheer and rushed to meet him.
So, Mr. Pontaoe, there were real guerillas under the command of Lt Ramsey, and the probability of guerillas on top Binmaley church planting an American flag is not next to impossibility, but did it to show their contributions in the war.
