Good Friday, April 3, 1942, there was a massive air assault taking place in the Philippines.
Good Friday, April 11, 1941, United States Army T/Sgt. Jacob Johler was at Fort Mills, Corregidor. Correspondence home to Buffalo, New York indicates that he attended church services outdoors on Easter Sunday which was on April 13th, 1941 and that there were plans to build a new chapel on the island. In additional correspondence Jacob discusses his enjoyment singing in the chapel choir, even though he is teased by some of the men.
