    What does BA COM stand for? My Dad was stationed on New Caledonia in WW ll! How do I find out if he was in the Battle of Luzon/Manilla? Its my understanding that it took place from Feb 3 of 1945 to March 3rd of 1945? What units were there? What was the casualty rates? any other info would be appreciated! He received a Liberation medal for that Battle. Help.
