Opis

In December 1941, my family evacuated to Bataan (my mother'shome province) when Gen. MacArthur urged the Manila residents to leave the city because the Japanese would bombard it prior to invasion. Everything was fine till news arrived that the US Armed Forces were retreating to Bataan to make their last stand. Many people, and we were among them, sought safety in the forests.
