The story of the brave US Army nurses abandoned to the enemy at the fall of Corregidor Island to the Japanese following the long Bataan Peninsula battle in the …
Gad I despise MacArthur, for so many reasons, but this adds more to that list.
I can't imagine what hell it can be for precious American nurses
I read a book about some of the atrocities these nurses faced.
1. Considered as "expendable" by their own government and country.
2. All of these nurses should have received recognition.
3. It shouldn't take 40 years to recognize the services of 1 or 2 nurses.
What they endured. Their accomplishments and heroism are far beyond what is NORMAL EVERYDAY DUTIES.
How some people give a thumbs down to this content makes no sense to me. Great stuff as usual Dr. Felton!!!
What a pity it was ONLY two A-bombs.
This is amazing ….. I was stationed there for 2 years and kick myself for not learning more of what happened beyond the bataan death march . They are heros as far as I am concerned unlike that self centered POS MacArthur ! That part about the subs coming in and American company's making them pay the IOUs after what they went through is disgusting . Godbless all who were there 🇺🇸
I read this story in the book "We Band of Angels". The story of these nurses is one of courage and perseverance. Thank you for sharing.
Gang raped by hundreds if not thousand's of Japanese solder's.. idk why we never here about all the war crimes that Japan did. Always the Nazi's
Somehow the Japanese didn't include this story at the museums in Hiroshima and Nagasaki . . .
Please, report on conditions for japanese and German prisoners.
By the way, my Dad was in europe, apparently relatively nearby when George Patton's "accident" occurred. His report was significantly different from what that you reported.
Additionally, I recall him indicating that the German men were better behaved tham men from this country.
My father had troubling memories of his days in PI . I returned home as a Vietnam Vet and a Philippine Island lover, he and I became closer.. He always insisted that America will always owe the wonderful People of PI for saving our hide! *
This video hitting different for me since I'm training to be a US Army Nurse.
What’s a kit casualty and why did chocolate bars cause them?
In the end, MacArthur learned to respect the Japanese.
That may pay off in this latest confrontation.
And then there was the commando style raid to liberate Navy nurses at Los Baños.
I'm wondering where the RED CROSS was during all this? Isn't that one of their functions – to address and mitigate this sort of horror? Or is that only applicable to signatories to the Geneva Convention? Leaving victims of the Japanese SOL?

Does anyone know why McArthur is so revered?
