Great idea for a thread, Biak. I had to throw you a "Like" cuz, apparently, I've been a bit too generous with them lately.
For checking the locations of US divisions on the Philippine island of Luzon, I found the maps in the official history difficult to use for quick reference and the USMA maps incomplete. I had read the official history Triumph in the Philippines, several years back and found I had not retained this information to the same extent that I had for the US war in Europe. To help me re-learn and for future reference I made a map which shows the movements of the divisions. I rushed its completion so there are probably a number of errors but essentially complete. I used a key of small division patches because they help me remember. The compression routine for file uploads on this site will degrade the quality but hopefully it will be usable. Edit: Updated map with corrections, additions and dates. Also found this book at CMH with a report from MacArthur's Headquarters. Maps found here provide a better overview of the battle. Chapter 9: The Mindoro and Luzon Operations

One of the internet's weaknesses. A ton of knowledge was out there and linked to, now broken links and images that won't load. It increased access to information, but how much has been lost because the sites that contained the info are gone?
I forgot what maps you are looking for, China I think? This link works and I pulled up an area you're familiar with. Index on the left. American Civil War 1861-1865
