Title A name given to the resource Doomed at the start : American pursuit pilots in the Philippines, 1941-1942 / William H. Bartsch ; foreword by Herbert Ellis Subject The topic of the resource United States. Army. Air Corps. Pursuit Group, 24th--History. World War, 1939-1945--Aerial operations, American. World War, 1939-1945--Campaigns--Philippines. World War, 1939-1945--Regimental histories--United States. Description An account of the resource Well-researched and well-written account of the American fighter (then called pursuit) pilots in the defense of the Philippines. Armed with some of the latest (and some of the older) fighters the US had, these pilots flew a one-sided battle against superior Japanese aircraft and pilots. Most planes and installations were lost in the first days of the war, and the planeless pilots and crew had to serve as infantry on Bataan, while the last P-40 fighters were hoarded for almost suicidal missions to attack the Japanese when possible. Bartsch interviewed or contacted almost all surviving pilots at that time, and unearthed much historical (and photographic) material, resulting in a readable and definitive account.

Title A name given to the resource 1220 days : the story of U.S. Marine Edmond Babler and his experiences in Japanese prisoner of war camps during World War II / [edited] by Robert C. Daniels Subject The topic of the resource Prisoners of war--Japan--Biography. Prisoners of war--United States--Biography. World War, 1939-1945--Personal narratives, American. World War, 1939-1945--Prisoners and prisons, Japanese. Description An account of the resource This book is actually the personal memoir of Edmond Babler, which Daniels edited and annotated. Babler joined the US Marine Corps during the years of the Great Depression in the US, and was sent to China to join the 4th Marine Regiment. The 4th Marine Regiment was evacuated from Shanghai to the Philippines just before the outbreak of the war, and saw action in defense of Corregidor. The bulk of Daniels’ memoir deals with his life as a prisoner of war under the Japanese – 1220 days of hell, from the surrender of Corregidor to liberation in southern Japan. Frank talks about the tortures he received, but also about how he survived. He details his travails in Palawan, Nichols, Nielson, Zablan and other airfields in the Philippines; hell ship voyage to Japan and forced labor in coal mines. The editor, Daniels, was inspired to publish Babler’s memoirs after he heard him speak of his war experiences. The book was published some ten years after Babler died.
