The Bataan death march is painful for me to even think of. I was not old enough to be in WW11. Several in my family fought in it. In printing my family history I have tried to give accounts and thanks to those who saved us from the horrows of war.

An uncle I never met survived the Bataan death march. Gen. Wainwright was captured also, and after his return was CO @ Ft. Sam. My mom was his secretary.
