| Summary, Etc. |
- Summary, etc. - "Here is the full story of how the various Filipino resistance groups in Northern Luzon grew and matured into a single fighting force, the United States Armed Forces in the Philippines, Northern Luzon (USAFIP, NL). Although inferior in number, arms and equipment, it waged war against the enemy for 200 days in the "most critical, the most hazardous and the most decisive parts of the entire Philippine war zone." It "routed the Japanese armed forces, neutralizing well over fifty thousand banzai-charging soldiers of the Land of the Rising Sun" and accepting yet the surrender of more than thirty thousand of their ilk."
