This scrapbook page captures the transition from war to peace in the Philippines as witnessed by Jack T. Kelley: the ruins of Manila still visible in 1945 and 1946, a wrecked aircraft at the Santa Rita airstrip, and jubilant crowds celebrating V-J Day in August 1945. A photograph of a colonial-era church at Santa Rita, taken in 1946, reflects the slow return to normal life in the communities surrounding Clark Field during the postwar occupation period.
