Mile-Long Barracks, Philippine Islands
 
 
A view of Topside - the highest area of Corregidor - taken from the vicinity of the Spanish Lighthouse.  Shown are the remains of the "Mile-Long Barracks" barely visible above the trees.  These main barracks on the Topside section housed the troops of the coast artillery battalions who manned the island defenses.  The building was a three-story concrete structure designed to be hurricane proof while providing comfortable, airy accommodations in a tropical environment.  Despite the fact it never was a mile long when built, the structure was considered to be the longest barracks in the world.  In the background, across the North Channel, are the mountains of Bataan Peninsula overlooking Corregidor, Philippines.
