A plaque in the Malinta Tunnel, donated and placed by a Texas A&M Aggies club with permission from the Philippine government, now marks the spot of the most well-known Aggie Muster that took place during World War II in 1942 on the island of Corregidor.

Today, Malinta Tunnel is the venue of an audio-visual presentation by National Artist Lamberto V. Avellana of events that occurred during World War II, including the evacuation of President Quezon and General MacArthur by Motor Torpedo Boat Squadron Three from Corregidor to Mindanao.
