ON Jan.28,1945, 121 hand selected U.S. troops slipped behind enemy
lines in the Philippines. Their mission:March thirty rugged miles
to rescue 513 POWs in a hellish prison camp,among them the last
survivors of the infamous BATAAN DEATH MARCH. A great story of a
brave bunch of men who were successful in their dangerous task.
