The Hunt for Freedom: A Daring Death March Escape
Manage episode 376619138 series 3440529
22-year-old Raymond Hunt was captured by Japanese forces on southern Bataan in April 1942.
The next day, he began the grueling forced march that would become infamously known as the Battan Death March. But Hunt wasn’t going to let his enemies determine his fate. At great risk to himself, he escaped the march and joined the largest Guerilla organization in The Philippines and continued fighting.
By World War 2’s end, Hunt was commanding 3,400 men and women and gathering vital intelligence to aid the American re-invasion of The Philippines.
This is his story.
