News reporter to commander: Bataan, the Death March, three POW
camps- the war story of Captain Charles Underwood. A Story untold
for more than sixty years There are thousands of U.S. soldiers who
have never been properly recognized for their actions during the
Second World War. This is the story of one of them. Charles
Underwood was a young reporter when he was called up to active
service in the Philippines. He survived the infamous Death March,
and spent over three years as a prisoner of war in Japan, at the
end of which time he boldly commandeered a train and traveled
through hostile territory to reach the U.S. lines. He is credited
with helping to liberate more than seven hundred starving POWs.
Using his father's long-forgotten journal as a starting point,
Charles Underwood, Jr. has done extensive research to bring to life
the important part of American military history.
