MIS Capitol Bataan
The fall of Bataan and Corregidor in 1942 ended the organized Fil_american resistance to the Japanese invasion. But the resistance to the Japanese continued in the form of guerrilla warfare waged by former Filipino soldiers and a few Americans who did not surrender to the Japanese. The ranks of the guerrillas were strengthened when released Filipino prisoners of war, Filipino civilians who wanted to take revenge on the Japanese for their cruelty, and patriotic young men and women joined them.[i]
The guerrilla movement included many high-ranking officials of the Japanese-sponsored government who passed on vital information to the guerrillas about Japanese military plans and activities.[ii]
U.S. submarines supplied the guerrillas with arms and ammunition, communications equipment, food and medical supplies.[iii]
