In April of 1942, US soldiers experience what is perhaps the largest scale of cruelty ever inflicted upon them. Following the largest military defeat in the history of the USA, 80,000 Allied prisoners of war are forced to walk a death march from Bataan. The cruel treatment of these prisoners includes severe dehydration in the tropical heat of the Philippines, and those too weak to carry on are either left for dead or outright executed. This story is only unique in this war because it is the first time soldiers of the United States are experiencing it, but it will tragically not be the last such instance of a crime against humanity,

Is this the clean version of the video or an uncut full version of it? I remember in the previous WAH post, Sparty & team had mentioned their intention to put up clean versions of WAH videos to hopefully expand the YouTube view algorithms.

Last week I talked to a daughter (and niece) of 2 survivors. Two brothers who went into the Army to escape the crippling dust bowl in the late 30s. Tomorrow I march in remembrance of the dead.

I knew two death march survivors. One of them I shared an office with for two years. His youth and his faith got him through nearly four years of horror in the Philippines and later Japan. He never lost his humanity and even helped a former guard's family after the war when he discovered their own dire circumstances. It makes you wonder about the ones who were evil and performed acts of barbarism on the helpless. What kind of lives did they later live? Did they hide their sins, dwell on them, seek redemption, wallow in self-pity, or allow their hatred to consume them? I've seen hate destroy what were otherwise decent men. The only ones it does not destroy are the psychopaths, but they are relatively few in number and already soulless.

The way Japanese treated their POW's was simply inhumane. I went to Kanchanaburi in Thailand and visited Hell's Gate and Nam Tok...seeing that, silences you very quickly and I was humbled by the thought of all those poor men who suffered so much!

They could probably do a stand-alone WAH special episode on Japanese POW camps.

Heartbreaking.

My two grandparents who fought at Bataan thankfully survived. My maternal great grand uncle was an artillery officer in the Philippine Scouts (and wrote his memoir of the campaign) endured the march and captivity, he passed away three years ago at 98. My paternal grandfather who was an infantry lieutenant in the Philippine Commonwealth Army on the other hand managed to escape from his column and eventually joined the resistance, he continued a military career postwar dying in 2004 aged 80. Both had vivid stories of the atrocities; thirst and beatings/executions chief among them. I am thankful for your efforts at dedicating an episode of WAH to this dark chapter of my country's history.

I wasn't looking forward to this episode after last week but I am glad you are taking the time to honor those who had to suffer through this.

Some years ago I had the opportunity to visit Mariveles and drive down the Bataan peninsula. There is a small sign in Mariveles that notes the beginning of the Bataan Death March. The irony of so small a recognition for such a momentous tragedy was not lost on me. Photos of the death march tend to focus on the Americans, but it was certainly the Filipinos that suffered the brunt of Japanese scorn. WAH could do an entire episode of how the Filipino people suffered under the boot of the Japanese Imperial Army.

Great video, spot on delivery. Powerful ending. Awesome job, as always. Thank you for honoring those who suffered here.

I say this every time a WaH video comes out but another great job by Spartacus and team. You've all done amazing work bringing these horrors to life and keeping them in our memory. I cringe knowing the horrors yet to come.

I had sinus problems when I was growing up, so I spent quite a bit of time with the family's ENT (ear/nose/throat) specialist. This was only 10-15 years after the event. Dr. Palermo was a survivor of the Bataan Death March. But I only know this from my parents. He never said a word. Later on, I understood why: it was too painful and he lost too many friends. He was a good man and used his GI Bill to get through med school.
