Summary, Etc.
  • Summary, etc. - The content of this book (not to be confused with the official US Army history by Robert Ross Smith) was written and compiled in 1946 by the Combat History Division, G-1 Section, United States Army Forces Western Pacific based in Manila, but not formally published (except for the section on Corregidor). It covers the entire war and Japanese occupation of the Philippines in four sections: Bataan: Into Darkness; Corregidor: Of Eternal Memory; Enemy Occupation: Guerrillas; and The Return: Total Victory. Using primary official and personal materials, which the Combat History Division compiled, the four volumes were written in popular style by members of the history division, - namely Lt. Col. Le Roy V. Greene and Capt. Justus C. Bateman - who were professional journalists before the war. This work provides a quick capsule history of the war and guerrilla resistance movement as it was known at that time by the Americans. The editor added his own comments in a supplement, entitled "A Reassessment of the History of the Second World War in Bataan from the Viewpoint of a Filipino." This volume is the third in Col. Ancheta's series, "Historic Documents of World War II in the Philippines." - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose
