Summary, Etc.
  • Summary, etc. - Personal diary, with annotations, of an underage teenage American who joined the US Army and was shipped to the Philippines, where he got caught in World War II. A private in the 31st Infantry Regiment (US Army), he candidly narrates what it was like in Bataan, the suffering in the Death March and in particular, his experiences as a prisoner of the Japanese. Unembellished, he tells what happened as he saw it, elucidating the all-too-brief original diary entries. - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose
