The 78,000 soldiers surrendered to the Japanese after fighting on the Bataan Peninsula in the Philippines during World War II. This event occurred in April 1942, following a prolonged and difficult defense against Japanese forces. The surrender led to the infamous Bataan Death March, where many soldiers were forced to march over long distances under brutal conditions.
The liberation of the Philippines is exactly that - the liberation of the Philippines, from the Japanese imperial army, by allied forces in World War 2. The Japanese invaded the Philippines in order to get resources, capture supply routes and to create a Japanese controlled "buffer zone" around mainland Japan. Allied forces, lead by MacArthur eventually retook the Philippines several years later and went on, along with other generals, to destroy the Japanese imperial army and subdue Japan's aggression. Whilst in the Philippines the Japanese army, as with other places inflicted great harm and hostility on the local people and captured soldiers.

unquestioned discipline of the Japanese soldiers and civilians!
