  • Hello everyone, welcome to this week’s episode taking you to the Battle of Corregidor, fought on May 5-6, 1942, in Manila Bay’s rocky fortress.

This is the story of World War Two’s last Allied stand in the Philippines—a five-month holdout crushed by sixteen thousand shells and a final invasion that left no escape.
