Les mer Left Behind: When America Surrendered WW2

Astounding real-life experiences of the people left behind after the Fall of The Philippines -- when America surrendered in early WW2. From the Bataan Death March to Japanese hell ship voyages to the Philippine Resistance, I research and share stories from this forgotten part of WW2 in the Pacific Theater. I’m your host, Anastasia Harman. I’m a researcher and writer turned podcaster ... on a mission to keep the legacies of these men and women alive. Heroes who gave their all, and all-too-often their lives, only to have largely been overlooked by history. Together, we’re going to change that. This is Left Behind.

episode Cabanatuan’s First Escape cover

Cabanatuan’s First Escape

Four young American POWs attempted to escape from the Cabanatuan POW Camp.   After being caught, they endured brutal punishment, forced to dig their graves, and executed by firing squad.   But, by war’s end, their burial location couldn’t be found. Would their remains ever be located, and would their murderer be brought to justice?     I mentioned the following episodes in today’s episode: #53 – Attacks on Manila Bay’s harbor defense forts [https://leftbehindpodcast.com/marchtocabanatuan/] #55 – March to Cabanatuan [https://leftbehindpodcast.com/92ndgarage/]   You’ll find images and maps about these men’s story at: - Left Behind Website [https://leftbehindpodcast.com/1stCabanatuanEscape] (includes transcript with sources) - Instagram: @leftbehindpodcast [http://www.instagram.com/leftbehindpodcast]  - Left Behind Facebook [http://www.facebook.com/people/Left-Behind-Podcast/100092698653154/]

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
