In the spring of 1942, tens of thousands of Filipino and American soldiers who had fought bravely to defend their homeland were forced onto a march that would become one of the darkest chapters of the war.
After the fall of Bataan, exhausted and hungry prisoners of war were made to walk many grueling miles under a merciless sun with little food or water. The journey, remembered as the Bataan Death March, claimed thousands of lives along the way. Those who endured it carried the memory for the rest of their days, a testament to almost unimaginable hardship and resilience. 
It is important that we remember them, not for the suffering alone, but for their courage. These were young men who had held out against overwhelming odds, and who kept one another going with small acts of kindness even in the worst of circumstances. Their sacrifice is woven into the shared history of the Philippines and its allies. 
Some stories must be remembered so that the courage within them is never forgotten. How does your family keep the memory of the wartime generation alive?
