Binalonon (Luzon), The Philippines: As elements of the Japanese 14th Army continue their advance south toward Agno, MGen J Wainwright's North Luzon Force vainly tries to stem the advance. For the third day in a row, the 26th Cav (PS), much reduced, finds itself the main delaying force as the rest of the Allied troops retreat south through Binalonon. After four hours of desperate combat the Scouts eventually are given the order to withdraw to Tayug. Cavaryman himself, MGen Wainwright, arriving at Binalonon late in the fighting, remarks: "Here was true cavalry delaying action fit to make a man's heart sing".
