Personal narrative of a sixteen-year-old American who faked his father’s signature to enlist in the US Army. He arrived in Corregidor in April 1941, and was assigned to the 60th Coast Artillery Regiment (Anti-Aircraft). He writes about his pre-war training, life on Corregidor before and at the start of the war, his experiences during the defense of the island fortress, and becoming a prisoner of war. He was imprisoned in Bilibid and Cabanatuan before being taken to Japan by prison ship. His unconquerable faith was on the US flag and his religion, which saw him through his ordeals, including having to stand for 132 hours while in prison camp. - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose
