Question

Which action led to the Bataan Death March?

Answer 1

The Bataan death march occurred when Japanese forced captured soldiers to walk for 80 miles to Bataan peninsula.

Explanation:

The Bataan Death March was the persuasive exchange by the Imperial Japanese Army of 60,000–80,000 American and Filipino detainees of war from Saysain Point, Bagac, Bataan and Mariveles to Camp O'Donnell, Capas, Tarlac, by means of San Fernando, Pampanga, where the detainees were stacked onto trains.

The Bataan Death March was the point at which the Japanese constrained 76,000 caught Allied officers (Filipinos and Americans) to walk around 80 miles over the Bataan Peninsula. The walk occurred in April of 1942 during World War II.
