Whatever they lack in personality, Mucci and Prince make up for in doggedness as they lead 121 mostly novice Rangers and Alamo Scouts 30 miles behind the Japanese lines to the Cabanatuan prison camp, where our boys have been languishing for nearly three years. However, the most interesting Ranger operation of the Second World War was conducted by the 6th Ranger Battalion, (33) which was reinforced by members of the Alamo Scouts (34) and Filipino guerrillas, to rescue 511 Allied prisoners from a Japanese POW camp near Cabanatuan in the Philippines. They had been held in the Cabanatuan POW camp in the Philippine Islands since 1942. |
