It was in Bataan in the Philippines.
The Bataan Death March followed the surrender of American and Filipino forces to the Japanese on April 9, 1942, during World War II. After months of intense fighting on the Bataan Peninsula, the Allied troops were overwhelmed by the Japanese military. Following the surrender, approximately 75,000 prisoners were forced to march about 65 miles to a prison camp under brutal conditions, including starvation, physical abuse, and lack of water. This tragic event highlighted the severe treatment of POWs by the Japanese during the war.

These soldiers were forced to march over 60 miles under brutal conditions, leading to significant suffering and a high death toll among the prisoners. The event became a symbol of the harsh treatment faced by POWs during World War II and highlighted the dire circumstances of the Philippines during the Japanese occupation.
The Bataan death march, and the Dachau death march, were two separate events. The first was in the Philippines and was perpetrated by the Japanese, and the second was in Germany.
