Synopsis

Scott Glenn’s *Bataan Rescue* recounts the courageous commando raid of January 1945, which liberated 513 survivors of the 1942 Bataan Death March, those held captive in a Japanese prisoner-of-war camp in the Philippines. The rescuers detail their efforts, and the prisoners describe the profound significance of their freedom. "That's the night I was reborn," one survivor remembers. "That’s my birthday."
