Subject: Extracts from Weekly Intelligence Trend Report
FROM: G-2 | TO: G-3 (PA Sect) | 13 April 1946 |
The following extracts, from the Weekly Intelligence Trend Report of Sub Base R, dated 9 April 1946, are forwarded for your information and file:
1. “On or about 29 March 1946, a unit of the PQOG under a certain Dumas raided barrio Kabay, San Juan, Batangas but with no success. Banking on their superior arms, Dumas’ men, before the raid, sent word to the peaceful inhabitants of the barrio that they would be coming to ransack their homes and take everything from clothes to valuables, which their hands could lay on. The men of that barrio, heeding the threat, gathered themselves and with few arms which they were able to muster prepared for the worst. Dumas’ men lived up to their threat and on the night of 29 March, they came but were repulsed through an exchange of fire. Dumas’ men retreated with two casualties and with nothing for a booty.”
2. “Another guerrilla organization of the Fil-American Irregular Troops under a certain Colonel Galicano Luansing Jr. has been reported actively engaged in lawless activity in Rosario, Batangas. Col. Luansing has been rounding up his former men, supposedly to have the organization recognized by AFWESPAC. Inasmuch as the deadline for filing application for recognition has passed already, Luansing’s moves now bear watching.
