Left Behind: When America Surrendered WW2

Left Behind: When America Surrendered WW2

Astounding real-life experiences of the people left behind after the Fall of The Philippines -- when America surrendered in early WW2. From the Bataan Death March to Japanese hell ship voyages to the Philippine Resistance, I research and share stories from this forgotten part of WW2 in the Pacific Theater. I’m your host, Anastasia Harman. I’m a researcher and writer turned podcaster ... on a mission to keep the legacies of these men and women alive. Heroes who gave their all, and all-too-often their lives, only to have largely been overlooked by history. Together, we’re going to change that. This is Left Behind.
