A participant of the 30th Annual Bataan Memorial Death March carries the Philippine’s national flag at White Sands Missile Range, N.M., March 17, 2019. During World War II, on April 9, 1942, the U.S. and Filipino soldiers surrendered after seven months of battle combined with exposure to the extreme elements, disease, and lack of vital supplies. The tens of thousands of U.S. and Filipino soldiers were forced to become prisoners of war to the Japanese. The soldiers faced horrifying conditions and treatment as POWs.
