Synopsis by Tracie Cooper

Featuring first-person accounts from fifteen survivors of the "Bataan Death March", this program examines the surrender of the Philippine-based troops (approximately 75,000 men) to the Imperial Japanese army in 1941. The documentary also includes previously unpublished diaries, cartoons, and never-before-seen Japanese propaganda film footage.
