All of the mission couples took a p-day together and drove down to Bataan where the death march began. We borrowed the mission van so we were all able to travel together. |
President Javier , in the middle, and his wife were our guides. |
There is a huge monument with a cross at the top of the mountain where the main encampment was. |
There was some memorabilia and a nice museum |
Elder and Sister Lutz |
Most of our group |
Looking down at the terrain from the top |
We then drove down the mountain to the bay where there was another camp of men, this is where the actual march began |
That island in the distance is Corregidor where McCarthur and American supplies and re enforcements were, so close and yet so far. |
School kids were on field trips and they all wanted a picture with the Americans. |
They were especially taken with Elder McCords snow white hair |
