The Bataan Death March was a incident during the midst of World War Two. Just after the Battle of Bataan between Filipino and American forces against the Japanese. This Battle was fought in the Luzon island during the Japanese invasion of the Philippines. After the Battle in April 1942 over 80,000 American and Filipino POWs (Prisoners Of War) had to walk from Saysain Point, Bagac, Bataan and Mariveles to Camp O'Donnell, Capas, Tarlac. Many lives were lost due to heat exhaustion, tiredness, execution, etc.
