2 young American prisoners of war – Norm Thenell and Dick Watt – lived through the Bataan Death March, only to enter a literal hell on earth – Camp O’Donnell.
Daily life at O’Donnell was marked by disease, malnutrition, and uncertainty and became yet another of Japan’s WW2 atrocities.
Watt and Thenell were lucky, though – they formed an unbreakable group, which was, perhaps, the only reason they endured the horrors of this Japanese internment camp in the Philippines.
But could they survive the rest of the war?
