A powerful untold story of the Bataan Death March!Underwood is credited with saving more than 600 American POWsThere are thousands of U.S. soldiers who have never been properly recognized for their actions during the Second World War. This is the story of one of them. Charles Underwood was a young reporter when he was called up to active service in the Philippines. He survived the infamous Death March, and spent over three years as a prisoner of war in Japan, at the end of which time he boldly commandeered a train and traveled through hostile territory to reach the U.S. lines. Using his father's long-forgotten journal as a starting point, Charles Underwood, Jr. has done extensive research to bring to life this important part of American military history.
