Km. 134, Piis, Lucban, Quezon – The Battle of Piis Memorial Marker was recently unveiled on this specific site last May 2, 2011 in honor of all the soldiers who gave up their lives to defend the said junction. The battle lasted for two days, wherein Filipino soldiers from the USAFFE, Philippine Scouts, and local guerrillas participated and succeeded in delaying the Japanese Landing Forces in advancing to Manila during World War II.
