Description

This is an annotated, typewritten draft page from Chapter 2, "The Death March," in Manny Lawton's memoir Some Survived. It describes the long forced march from Bataan to Camp O'Donnell. The prisoners had to walk about twenty-five miles a day in the scorching heat, with minimal food and water and few medical supplies, while the Japanese guards beat and taunted them.
