Del Monte Field

Del Monte Field

Del Monte Field is a heavy bomber capable airfield located in Mindanao. It was constructed by December of 1941 and was part of USAFFE's plans to fortify the Philippines. The airfield was created in the belief that bombers at Clark Field, on Luzon, would be too easily attacked by an invading force. Construction of an additional bomber base, in the Visayas, was intended.
