We've all heard of the "death marches" conducted by Nazi Germany, but where did the Japanese death march of Allied POWs occur?

In April of 1942, the Bataan Peninsula on Luzon in the Philippines fell to the Japanese, leaving 76,000 Allied POWs at the mercy of their captors. And these captors showed no mercy. Without food or water, the POWs were forced to walk a brutal 65 miles under the hot South Pacific sun. Nearly half of the 12,000 American POWs died in the Bataan Death March.
