The surrender of US & Filipino soldiers in the Philippines that were defending the Bataan peninsula from the Japanese in early 1942 was caused by the lack of ammunition & food, not by a lack of resolve or courage. US General Wainwright thought it was necessary because of the inability to be resupplied enough to keep fighting. No one knew beforehand what brutality the Japanese would soon inflict on their POWs. In hindsight, maybe they could have held out a little longer, but surrender or fighting to the last man were the only options left.
