Bataan Death March

The Bataan Death March happened during World War II a long time ago. It was a very sad and terrible event where a lot of soldiers from the Philippines and the United States were forced to walk a very long way without food, water, or rest.

Many soldiers were tired and sick, and some even died because they were not taken care of properly. It was a very bad time for them, and it was very unfair.

The Japanese soldiers who made the soldiers walk did not treat them kindly, and they were very mean. It was wrong for them to make the soldiers suffer like that. The Bataan Death March was a very painful and scary experience that we should always remember and learn from.
