Death March
April 1942

At this railroad station of San Fernando, the Filipino and American prisoners of war who had been marched all the way from Bataan to Pampanga, in one of the ghastliest forced marches in history, were loaded like cattle on boxcars, where, because every compartment was packed to the limit, many suffocated or were crushed to death during the trip to Capas.
