"Untold World War II guerrilla story of M/Sgt. Jorge G. Herrera, Jr."--CoverLanguage/Translation Info: EnglishSummary: Master Sergeant Herrera was 1937 Philippine Army trainee who was called to active service when the USAFFE was established. Rather than surrender in 1942, he organized his own guerrilla organization and led ambushes against the Japanese while also obtaining information from occupied Bacolod through a trusted spy (the daughter of a local Japanese whom he had fallen in love with). This is his story as related to the author, but told in the first person. - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose
