바타안 죽음의 행진
The "바타안 죽음의 행진" (Bataan Death March) refers to the forced transfer of approximately 76,000 Filipino and American prisoners of war by the Japanese military during World War II. This event took place in April 1942 after the fall of the Bataan Peninsula in the Philippines. The march covered about 65 miles under harsh conditions, leading to thousands of deaths due to exhaustion, starvation, and abuse.
The march began at Mariveles and ended at Camp O'Donnell. Prisoners faced extreme heat, limited water, and brutal treatment from their captors. The Bataan Death March is remembered as a significant and tragic event in military history, highlighting the suffering endured by those involved.
