The Bataan Death March

Bruce Armstrong has an interesting post remembering the Bataan Death March of World War Two.

One of my high school teachers was a veteran of the march.

My late father-in-law was a bomber navigator in the Pacific Theater during the war. A distant cousin fought in the Battle of the Bulge in the European Theater of Operations. I have been privileged to pastor, in my former parish, approximately ten WWII vets. Whether, they're members of the "greatest generation," as Tom Brokaw has fashioned them, they surely deserve our thanks. (On that score, see here.)

Bruce has several interesting links in his piece
