Presentation on Bataan Death March

I really was not very familiar with the Bataan Death March.  I knew that POWs suffered disgracefully at the hands of the Japanese, but I did not realize how much.   It seems that Germany was not the only country guilty of slaughtering people as if they were animals.  The troops were already weak from thirst, hunger, and lack of sleep, and then to make them walk 65 miles in the sweltering heat was pure torture.  When I think of World War II, I think more of the battles fought, not this type of retaliation that was so inhumane.  Thousands of lives, Americans and Filipinos, were lost during this march that lasted less than ten days (I believe that it what was said).
