Bataan Diary: A Soldier's True Account of Combat and Survival in the Philippines

By Chris Schaefer

In the annals of military history, few events are as harrowing or as tragic as the Bataan Death March. In April 1942, over 70,000 Filipino and American soldiers were forced to march 60 miles in the scorching heat, without food or water. Thousands died along the way, victims of starvation, disease, and the brutality of their Japanese captors.
