And those that survived the brutal march then faced the rest of the war in prisoner of war camps -— some in Manchuria (they with their tropical fighting clothes). It was horrific. These brave men ... these our best and brightest ... these are long remembered fighters. Thank you all who serve.

My father (60th Coastal Artillery AA on Corregidor) spent most of his captivity at Hoten Camp in Mukden, Manchuria.
