Prisoners Of War The Forgotten Americans Of The Vietnam War

ARMY LEADERSHIP— CHARACTER

Scouts and 17,000 Americans became prisoners. On the initial march to Camp O’Donnell, the Japanese beheaded many who became too weak to continue the trip. Other prisoners were used for bayonet practice or pushed to their deaths from cliffs. The situation at Corregidor was no better. Soldiers were weary, wounded, malnourished, and diseased.
