Horrific brutality is being done by the Obama Administration’s U.S. Bankruptcy Court to a cancer ridden, helpless 89 year old World War II veteran who received two bronze stars involving the incredible rescue of 2,000 U.S. Prisoners of War from vicious Japanese guards at the Los Banos Internment Camp in Luzon, Philippines in 1945.

There's a recent movie- a good one- about this operation. It's called 'The Great Raid'.

Different operation entirely. "The Great Raid", which is indeed a very good movie, is about the Rangers and other forces (both US and Filipino) that rescued about 500 POWs at the Cabanatuan prison camp before the larger Los Banos raid (which was led by the Parachute Infantry, not the Ranger).
