This original PS discharge certificates are a treasure, and wonderful to behold.

Thanks Ron. It looks like Private Felix Gawat was with the Philippine Constabulary for years and was in Bataan as a constable. Then after the war he briefly enlisted in the Philippine Army, then got recruited to be one of the new post-war Scouts.
It also looks like he got slightly wounded during the last days of the campaign, no doubt trying to hold off the last Japanese offensive.
