Summary, Etc.
  • Summary, etc. - A personal account by a Filipino doctor who was called to active service with the establishment of the US Army Forces in the Far East, through last minute training into the military medical corps. The battle of Bataan is narrated from the point of view of this doctor and his colleagues in the hospitals, as the sick and wounded began to be brought in. Mentions several of the doctors by name, and also gives tribute to the Filipino nurses, whose story he shares. Dr. De Veyra continues with his experiences as Bataan surrendered, the death march, prison camp life (in Camp O'Donnell), and eventual release. - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose
