English: Caloocan Church, Philippines, shortly after the attack by American forces on Feb 10 1899.
Description from "Our Boys In the Philippines" book:
"Caloocan Church - Caloocan, six miles north of Manila, bombarded by guns of the "Charleston" and "Monadnock" and levelled to the ground by fire, was a sorry sight as the Twentieth Kansas regiment advanced. The insurgent lay dead in great numbers for it was here that the Kansans won their first great victory. What was a prosperous town was in a few moments wiped out of existence. The church was afterwards used as headquarters"
