The Forgotten General
On August 15, 1945, Japan announced its unconditional surrender. Allied senior generals held at the Advanced Prisoner of War Camp in Liaoyuan were successfully rescued, including U.S. Lieutenant General Jonathan M. Wainwright, who had been captured by the Japanese army. Narrated mainly through Wainwright’s recollections, this film faithfully reproduces that period of history as well as the horrific Bataan Death March.
