	Fort Drum
		Fort Drum was located on El Fraile Island, about 7500 yards south of Caballo Island and by virtue of its peculiar character, a static battleship in the southern approaches to Manila Bay, it was the most unique of the Harbor Defense forts.
		The concept that forts could be attacked from the air would not be recognized for decades yet, and the coastal defense forts of Manila Bay, notably Corregidor, being entirely open to the skies, would suffer extensively from the air in later decades.
		At Fort Drum one 240-mm shell penetrated the casemate shield at Battery Roberts disabling one gun temporarily.
