Thank you for your info in Wikipedia on Captain Nieves Fernandez. I am writing an adventure novel (my sixth) with the lead characters being two English, off-center, Coast Watchers displaced by the Japanese. In this novel (tentative title – When All Else Fails) Neville and Clyde are involved in the Leyte invasion. Your material will be useful in constructing backgrounds/personalities for some of the Filipino characters. I will not be using actual names, but if you have any concerns regarding my using any of your material, please contact me.
