I decide to explore the underground bomb shelters more thoroughly since I've seen the HQ remains the last time.

Looks like something came through here at a rather high velocity.

New stuff for this second visit to Peleliu.......The first time here a noticed a little used trail heading off to the left rear from the cave. Off I go. Over 50 yards back I find something.

A cave entrance with some barrels in front of it. A supply depot for the gun?

It's been 15 min so I head back to the gun.
