<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ardatirion, post: 748096, member: 9204&quot;]This belonged to my grandfather, from his time in the army. I got curious about it yesterday, so I started doing some research. Apparently, he served in the 43rd Infantry, 169th Field Artillery, Battery B as an artillery spotter. According to my grandfather, this served as the pass for a local Philippine spy to get back into the US camp. </p><p><br /></p><p>The host note: Japanese occupation 1 peso, {34} 0699557</p><p><img src="http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d169/Ardatirion/Occupationpesoobv.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Reverse inscription:</p><p>Luzon ??? army [forces?]</p><p>4th mil. dist</p><p>???????????????????</p><p>Civilian pass for entry into ???</p><p>name Sergei Fronda</p><p>[age?] ??????&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; </p><p>status married</p><p>???????????????????</p><p>(non-transferable)</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d169/Ardatirion/Occupationpesowriting.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Can anyone clear up the illegible parts?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
