You might want to look at the library for this one: Corregidor The Rock Force by Lt Gen E.M. Flanagan, Jr.

My step-dad is mentioned in it on page 210. He was T/5 Frank Arrigo, he and Pfc Clyde Bates members of the 503d Parachute Regimental Combat Team raised the US flag on Corregidor when they re-took it in Feb 1945.
