Here is a scan from my in laws. It was taken shortly after the end of WWII I believe, and is of a unit from Iloilo, Panay. And best of all, a scan of the back with the names of the soldiers!

Very nice. Is your in-law the one X'ed? What's the patch they're wearing?

Unfortunately no, it is his brother, my wife's uncle (Tito?) Jose Simon.
Cannot make out the patch, but unit is marked as the Calinog Detachment of the 15th Batallion Combat Team.
I'll have to see if I can try to make out the patch from the original photo, or see if my F-I-L remembers.
