Introduction

tories of gallantry of both the civilian and military in the Philippines need to be told for children so that they will know what happened to their forefathers in the dark days of World War II, and cherish the memories of their struggle for freedom.

These stories will soon be lost and forgotten into the dustbin of history, unless they are told and preserved in print and in the internet, not only for Filipino children but for all young people of the world.
