Following months of intense fighting with a severe lack of resources the Allied forces in Bataan surrendered allowing the Japanese to capture the Peninsula. All POWs were subjected to the Bataan Death March, a horrific event where all 80,000 soliders had to march 108km to their new camps. Those who showed any fatigue while marching were killed. It is estimates 20,000 POWs were killed.
