My grandfather, JUAN L. MONREAL, was a WORLD WAR II Veteran. He was a brave Filipino soldier. He survived the Death March at Bataan. He is now 95 years old. My grandfather is kinda weak already. He became the cook for the Japs but he never have forgotton his fellow soldiers who are in prison. He gives them food everynight while the Japs are asleep. True hero..We will not forget his bravery and he will be a part of our country's history, forever...

Yes the took part of their own souls too, but at least for 50 or 75 years later they still enjoyed brandy and ciagars, finally giving up their souls at the age of 90 or so.
this is so tragic seeing your fellow man be mutilated and killed and not being able to do anything about it. It's a shame that these things still happen today, whether its a terrorist executing soldiers or secret soldiers torturing terror suspects to death. Only thing I can say is that these men committing these atrocities on innocent, unarmed, helpless people, are killing themselves and their own souls. When you take a life, a part of life gets taken and destroyed from your soul as well.
Japanese do lots of goods and bads. But one thing they are not capable of is feeling remorse for the pain they'd inflicted on the PLO and war victims. To these days, they are still denying their crime. Their textbooks still say that they were invited to enter and that they did not invade those Asian countries.
@conitatam and US text boobs still deny that the natives of North America were wiped out in a customary anglo-saxon genocide, and that hundreds of thousands of Japanese civilians were murdered by the US air-force. Japanese have more right to be proud of their heroic actions in WW2 than any other people.
It will be a fact that some illegal execution or abuse took place in Bataan. But fundamentally, the Japanese army's having done in Bataan is transporting to the place which can receive supply of food etc., in order to make prisoners of war survive. Really cruel army does not take prisoners of war. Surrenderers were already hungry for the siege battle in the Bataan fort. The Japanese army did not have sufficient food and a means of transfer to unexpectedly many surrenderers.
Dude: a pregnant Filipina tried to give some food to the death marchers, including Americans. The Japanese bayoneted her. the Japanese Imperial Army was cruel.
@ikesuarez1 Japanese were the most diehard warriors that ever existed in history, fighting to the last man in every battle, with complete disregard for their own lives. So they couldn't understand that some people could be so cowardly to fear for their own lives and forget the cause they are fighting for, that's why they hated prisoners so much.
My Uncle, MSgt Gil Paraguison was one of the many brave Filipino soldiers who defended Bataan. He was considered MIA. I am proud of my Uncle, the only brother of my mom. Together with those who risked their lives, he sacrificed his own life for the freedom we now enjoyed. He was a hero to us. Couple of years ago, I accompanied an American friend who visited Libingan ng mga Bayani, Fort Bonifacio. Lo and behold, I saw the name of my uncle engraved in the stone monument.

We should give as much air time on tv to the attrocoties the Japs committed as the Nazis, they hardley get a mention, I suppose they dont want to upset the Jap car industry, all you ever see on tv is the holocaust, never the cruel things the Japs did.
@nutchan0731 actually POW have no chance of winning my grandpa was a soldier (filipino) he says that many ppl die of hunger and tireness he says that he dosent eat for days same as others you can you stand that tirenesss and hunger while fighting japs with guns
@300lenard Japanese soldier were less than 20,000 compare to 80,000pows
and the japanese soldiers who participated that march was not large less than 20000. and they also walk togather with heavy stuffs. they say many pinoys escaped from that
according to japanese doccuments, the japan did not expect such large # of Pow soldiers. it is natural thet food was getting shortage. and plan that transport to pow place was not well planed.
wow the psychological control by the Japanese Army is so strong. how many people are marching? VS the Japanese? how many Japanese that is armed? they could have over taken them and just spread and run. but I guess.... they did not have a choice.
One of my first jobs was working in the housekeeping dept of a local hotel. One of the housekeepers was married to a survivor of Japan's POW camps. He could not be in the same room with someone of Asian desent without becoming highly agitated.
In the 1950s, the U.S. government negotiated away the rights of our troops taken POW by the Japanese to seek retribution. This is one of the most shamefull acts of our government with respect to our troops who suffered as POWs of the Japanese.
I do know one thing although I don't know why, my stepfather said the troops wouldn't give a plug nickel for Macarthur. That was there attitude towards him.
My father, Eugene E. Laird was a survivor of the Bataan Death March. I believe he was in a POW camp for 42 mo. He weighed 80 lbs when he came out. He died in 1978 at the age of 75. He would not speak of this, it was too painful. I have read his diary, and it only talked about what he wanted to do for his fellow prisoners when they were free.
@mgatwood God bless Eugene E Laird. My step father Albert Dubois of 192 nd tank battalion was there for 42 months as well. He never talks about the march either. He does convey his ill feelings towards the Japs and Macarthur. Say's he wouldn't give a plug nickel for him.
We pay homage to your Uncle, stormspinner and all of these men who suffered so much, many losing their lives. I'm sure many more survivors could never speak of the atrocities they witnessed, just too horrible. God bless them.
@40sSonggirl Thank you for your comment. My step father who is still alive at 92 years of age was in the 192 nd Tank Battalion. He just finished receiving honors for his ordeal. Strange how it wasn't an uplifting moment for him but rather he shed tears never seen before. In thinking that it was for the gratitude of the event I couldn't have been more wrong. In his words, it was for his buddies and the fellows that were not there to see the recognition he was about to except for them.
My Uncle Duke (Andrew) was a survivor of Bataan. When he was liberated after 3 plus years, he weighed 82 pounds (standing 6'2" tall). He died in 1999, carrying the horrors he endured to the grave. He'd never talk about it - God bless him -

He would not speak of this, it was too painful. I have read his diary, and it only talked about what he wanted to do for his fellow prisoners when they were free.
@stormspinner1 God bless your uncle Duke on behalf of Me and mine and My step father who also survived the march. They endured an unimaginable amount of pain and suffering both physical and psychological. They have seen a level of humanity that would seam impossible to reach by humans. They seen it, lived it,and experienced it. And I know that the only thing they ask of us is to remember it. God bless those who gave so much so we might live better. Remember Bataan!
My Uncle was also a survivor of the Bataan Death March. He has since passed on but he also would never talk about it. There is a Naval Barracks in Patuxent, Maryland that was named after him. It is called The Furnari Complex. His name was Biagio Orlando Furnari. God bless all those who gave their lives for our freedom, past and present. They deserve much more than they receive from our government when they finally come home from war.
@stormspinner1 Amazing..... My Uncle Henry Duke fought to retake the Philippines! He almost died when one night the Japanese Army did a banzai attack and one of them tried to bayonet my uncle. He was stabbed in the hand while his other hand had a 45 cal pistol and shot the Japanese soldier!
My father also a suvivor Bataan death march. He is one of thousan defender of bataan. I salute american soldier and pilipino fighter who fought love for freedom. They wer never ever forget . Thanks.
