Posted 19 January 2000

I am an historian interested in doing oral interviews with combat veterans of the Bataan Peninsula, January 25 - April 9, 1942, for the purpose of publication.

I will be at the Reno convention in May, and also available for personal or telephone interviews with any individuals who might wish to share unpublished anecdotes concerning their personal experiences while the fighting raged.   This includes any American of Filipino soldiers, and I would be most grateful for any contacts.

Thank you,
