    The Battle of Bataan Brig. Gen. W.E. Braugher 11 D

    Here are the things that handicapped us-1. The failure of our Air Force. The lack of foresight and ordinary caution on the part of our air

    forces in the Philippines, resulting in their complete destruction by the Japanese in the early days of the warsubjected us to a handicap from which we never recovered ___and in fact had no right to expect to recover.

    There are only two things that will ensure security and protection of either personnel or material against themenace of enemy air superiority. These are: (1) Dispersion (2) cover. Our air forces did not have either.They were huddled together at Clarke Field, Nichals (?) Field and Iba without cover of any kind. Everyplane we had should have been under the ground. Lacking underground storage, they should have beenhidden in the woods and brush. They should have been dispersed in small units throughout Luzon and theSouthern Islands.

    By permitting themselves to be caught flat foot footed in the first days of the war the Air Force wasdestroyed before its first great opportunity that of meeting the enemy landing force at the beach. There isnothing more vulnerable than a landing force. If your Air Force misses that first great chance of meetingand destroying the enemy landing force at the beach the point of its greatest vulnerability, God help you.Ours missed this chance because it no longer existed when the Japanese landed. They landed at will,deliberately and unopposed at many points where it was not possible have troops the Ilocos (?) Coast,

    Cajazon (?) Valley, Southern Luzon and other places.After landing, enemy air superiority [reacted in every place] (?) being constantly overhead destroying

    the morale of our untrained troops who innocently (?) and trustingly expected our air forces to show up anytime. When our air forces failed to show up their hope gave away to despair.

    A great deal of the fault is due to the traditional weakness of the Air Corps. They never did learn tosoldier and they never intended to learn. They played at the serious business of preparation for war insteadof working at it. Their attitude was one of cockiness, arrogance, discourtesy, lack of discipline andcooperation. They drank and played excessively and regarded themselves as superior and privilegedpeople. They will never recover from the black eyes they gave themselves in the Philippines and Hawaii.To Hell with them!

    2. Ditto for the Navy - Anybody who did not know that the war in the Philippines was going to be anair and navy war was too dumb to live and certainly deserved to lose. The trouble was, their lack of

    foresight and complete lack of preparation based on this knowledge not only led to their own failure anddestruction but put the land forces in a hole that they had no chance to recover from. It was a foregoneconclusion that should have been obvious to a four-year old chief that whoever won the initial air and navalfight in the Philippines would have a tremendous advantage. By failing to ensure this victory, the Navy and

    Air Force wrecked all chances our pitifully inadequate army (land forces) ever had of holding the Philippinesagainst the magnificently trained, conditioned and equipped Japanese forces.

    It is just as true now (April 21, 1942 in prison camp) as is was then. We will never get one ounce ofrelief until the Naval and Air battle has been won. Our expeditionary forces will never get into thePhilippines until sufficient naval and air strength have been built up in this area to drive the Japanese out ofthese waters and the surrounding air. This may take a longer time than is now available . considering theimpending fall of Corregidor and advent of rainy season within two months. (May 31_ How (?)!)

    Whose fault was it? Perhaps (word?) that of our National Government in failing to provide the

    necessary forces and material means. Perhaps largely the fault of the local Naval and Air authorities infailure to properly disperse out and protect the limited forces we had. Certainly better use could have beenmade and better conservation provided for our valuable naval and air units. Instead, we got no help fromthem whatsoever. (Word?) secret bases for supply and (word?) could have been provided in deep riversand (word) in the Southern Islands, (word), and Southern Luzon. Apparently nothing was done except w/Covite (?) and Olongopo (?) the two most vulnerable places. All because the naval officers wanted to beclose Manila and the Army and Navy Club! In war and preparation for war the comfort and pleasure of theofficers must be ignored completely. The same (?) final remark made about the Air Corps very largelyapplies to the Navy. It is now up to them to get us out of this hole and rehabilitate themselves in the thereregard of the Army and the people.

    3. Failure on the part of the Army High Command to prepare for occupying and defending Bataan.There is abundant evidence that those who have been credited with master strategy in falling back toBataan never intended to go back to Bataan. The defensive positions finally occupied had not ever beenlocated, much less prepared. When we would (word?) the I Corps Sector on the west side, not one stick ofbrush had been cut. Complete fields of fire should have been prepared by civilian labor. No (word) hadbeen located or laid out. Complete, continuous and coordinated positions across the entire front shouldhave been laid out by (word?) officers in advance. They should have been well concealed in the jungle toprotect against air observation and cause the enemy to approach through jungle (word?) with the handicapof poor or nonexistent observation for artillery or mortar concentrations, difficulty of supply, difficulty in

    building up troop concentrations for extensive effort.Instead it turned out that we had to move in, practically, under fire, working under pressure of short

    time, and (word?) a defensive position out of the untouched jungle. In the 11th Division we had only oneofficer (Moses) outside the 11th Division capable of laying out a regimental (defensive) position. Theconsequence was the work was mostly done poorly or entirely wrong and had to be later done over at thecost of endless back-breaking and heart-breaking labor by troops sick or weak from undernourishment.

    There was no position made for the supplies and equipment needed in Bataan. (Note: Exceptartillery and small arms ammunition which was available in abundance due to (word?) provision made byGeneral (word?) months in advance. Food available in quantity in Manila was not taken to Bataan becauseUSAFFE forbade it to prevent any indication of intention to go to Bataan. (The masterminds!) In the landwhere the bolo is universal as working tools and weapon, there were no bolos in the Philippine Army or inBataan. Vitally necessary for clearing the jungle fields of fire. In the country where the principal exports are

    sugar, tobacco, coconut oil (oleo), there was none of those in Bataan. The principal item of Filipino diet isrice, the principal product of Filipino agriculture. Warehouses full of rice were abandoned to the enemy onwithdrawal. And immediately on arrival in Bataan there was a shortage of rice! Bataan is surrounded bysalt and there was a shortage of salt. Fish are abundant but there was no fish. American food items couldhave been stored in abundance, but Americans were unable to get any of the things needed to keep themin health and strength. Medical supplies were short. No mortar ammunition or hand grenades wereavailable the most essential items in jungle warfare.

    Those who were praised and decorated for master strategy were saved temporarily from utter failureby heroic efforts on the part of the American officers and Filipino soldiers. Truth will be known some day.

    4. The placing of the main line of resistance in the II Corps sector in exposed areas where therewas no cover from air or artillery observation. The II Corps was broken by a Japanese offensive that beganwith an eight hour air and artillery bombardment of the MLR concentrated on the 41st Division and 21st

    Division. The front lines of these units were located in exposed areas along the PILAR-BEGAC Roadwhere there were no large trees to conceal them from air and ground observation. It was therefore possiblefor the Japanese without great difficultly to build up a strong offensive concentration within artillery andmortar range. With their command of the air, they could execute their typical anti artillery air tactics withcomplete success, namely: One light bomber would [hover carelessly] (?) over each of our batterypositions, flipping back and forth dropping one bomb at a time, machine gunning and shooting firecrackersto keep our artillery silent. While their artillery and mortars were firing and during the infantry-tank assaultwhich followed.

    If the MLR had been placed entirely in the jungle, concealed in big trees, it would have tended toneutralize the enemy advantage of air control by making it impossible for him to locate the MLR from the air.Likewise, it would have been impossible to concentrate observed artillery and mortar fire on the MLR asthey did on the 41st and 21st Divisions. Likewise, it would have been most difficult for the enemy to have

    built up an assault force in front of the MLR for the reason that troops can advance through the jungle onlyin small units, usually on a narrow front. Advance is ordinarily limited to existing trails, new trails made thetroops as they advance, or at least, to stream lines. For this reason, almost any advance in the jungle ispractically a defile advance preventing the building up of a broad front. Consequently, any enemy advanceagainst our MLR in the jungle would have been on a narrow front weak, poorly controlled, supplied withdifficulty, without effective air, artillery, or tank support, and consequently easily repelled. These assertionsare borne out by the fact that the enemy air control was almost completely neutralized in the I Corps sectorby reason of the thick jungle and big trees making it impossible for the enemy planes to see anything fromthe air. I know of no more complete military failure than the enemy air effort on the I Corps front. Resultsnil.

    5. We never had a chance to succeed foredoomed to failure from the beginning. If we had hadten modern American divisions in the Philippines with a normal component of Air Force properly protectedby dispersion and cover we could have held the Philippines. Anything less would have made it verydoubtful. This would have required an elaborate and efficient supply system, well protected by the Navyback to Australia and the States.

    I have heard the question that of defense of the Philippines discussed in all informed andauthoritative circles War College, War Dept. General Staff, War Plans, Navy, Hqrs Philippines Department

    no where was it ever alleged that we could successfully defend the Philippines. And so far as now known,there has never been any change in that professional opinion. In other words, the small group of Americans

    in the Philippines were sold down the river, committed to a hopeless task from the beginning. Why?Perhaps a catering to the vanity of one man. Perhaps just a colossal military blunder. There was nofairness in committing a small group of Americans to a hopless task that had no chance to wind up anyother way for us.

    Who had the right to say that 10,000 Americans should be sentenced without their own consent andfor no fault of their own to an enterprise that would involve for them excess suffering, cruel handicap, ahopeless future that could end over in a Japanese Prisoner of War camp in the Philippines? Who took theresponsibility for saying that some other possibility was in (word?)? And whomever did, was he not an arch-deceiver, traitor, and criminal rather than a great soldier? Didnt he know that without assured air and navalsuperiority in the Philippines he was sentencing all his comrades to sure failure, defeat, death or rotting in aprison camp? If our fruits (?) in the States are not aware of these facts and are not doing something about itfor our relief, we are the victims of the crime of the century. For nothing more than doing our duty as good

    soldiers, we have been sentenced to penal servitude of the (word?) sort. That was not included in my oathof office as an officer in the US Army. A foul trick of deception has been placed on a large group of

    Americans by a Commander in Chief and small staff who are now eating steak and eggs in Australia. GodDamn them!

    A battle is a strange thing like a dream. A man only knows such part of it as crosses his own vision, and

    remembers but little of that. What he does remember seldom tallies with what others saw. Talk with twenty

    of a regiment, and you may get twenty different versions of what took place get not one mans would[/have

    did?], except, perhaps, here and there a little [on?] the matter of his own accomplishments. Doubtless the

    enemy having many different accounts [unknown].

    (See Hira Singh by Talbot [M-----tig?] P35)

    The following verses (28-32) from the 14 th Chapter of St Luke are of interest in considering the planning of

    our higher command prior to the Battle of Bataan-

    28. For which of you, intending to build a town, [di-----?] not [dn?] first, and counteth the cost, whether

    he have sufficient to finish it?

    29. Lest hope, after he hath laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that behold it begin to

    mock him,

    30. Saying, this man began to build, and was not able to finish.

    31. Or what King, going to make war against another king, sitteth not down first, and [consider?]

    whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that cometh against him with twenty thousand?

    32. Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, send an embassage, and desireth conditions of

    peace.

    KIGENSETSU

    Februrary 11th

    The most important of all Nipponese holidays February 11, 1943 was the 2603d anniversary of the

    accession of Emperor Jimmu, First Emperor of Japan. Jimmu was a great grandson of Ninigi-No-Mikoto

    who was a grandson of the Sun Goddess and it was to this particular Kami that she gave instructions to

    go and rule Japan. She told Ninigi-No-Mikoto that Toyoashihara No Chiihoaki No Midzuhono Kuni (an

    old name for Japan) should be ruled by her descendents. She told him the Imperial reign would last as

    long as heaven and earth. She gave the Yasakani No Magatama (curved jewel), Yata No Kagami

    (mirror), and Ame No Murakumo No Tsurugi (sword) The Three Imperial Regalia to her grandson

    Ninigi No Mikoto. With many Kami, he descended from the Plain of High Heaven on the Province of

    Hyuga, where he, his son, Hikohomodemi No Mikoto, and his grandson, Ugayafukiaedzu No Mikoto,

    resided for the purpose of, or while, ruling the country.

    Birthday Letter to Betty Ann Lilly who is 18 today

    Tarlac Prison Camp August 5, 194[2?]

    Dear BA-

    Today I am reminded of another day 18 years ago. I was a Fort Sheridan, Illinois and your mother

    was with me. We had gone down a week before and she was destined to play an important part in the

    days great event.

    I can see myself now on this August 5th, 1924. I had just come from your mother in the in the station

    hospital. She was in bed when I left her, lying there very calmly, and on her face was the most serene

    yet triumphant expression it has ever been my fortune to see. And there in bed beside her was the

  • 7/28/2019 Lilly Diary, Vol 7, 1-29,47-82

    5/85

    tiniest bundle of humanity a little red baby girl my own daughter, squirming and making tiny,

    adorable noises. She was you,

    Page 11

    Betty Ann none other! What bran-new daddy wouldnt have been proud in a case like that?

    B.A., I was proud of you then and Ive been proud of you ever since. Im busting with pride this very

    moment as I write this in the Tarlac Prison Camp. Youve done many things that have increased my

    pride in you and Id give years of my life to be able to take you in my arms today.

    You are old enough and wise enough to understand why I have always had a very special respect

    and reverence for your mother on the birthdays of my children. As you know, she had a wonderfully

    vital part to play on all of those days. In all three of you, from time to time, I

    Page 12

    can see her image and it makes you all the dearer to me. As you grow older and more like her my

    pride in you increases. Bear that in mind, B.A., when youre thinking up all the reasons for being

    grateful to your mother. Shes guarded your [h----?] every minute of every day all your life and has done

    a mighty fine job of it. I know you will agree. You are old enough, and sensible enough, and I hope

    thoughtful enough to be a big help to her. You can do this in many ways anticipating her wishes,

    giving in to her when you have little differences, and try doing a little more than your share in getting

    along with the other members

    Page 13

    of the household (Remember Lord Chesterfields definition of good breeding?- the result of much good

    sense, some good nature and a little self denial for the sake of others, with a view to obtaining the same

    indulgence from them).

    As Ive told you many times, you know the answers and could probably do a better job of writing

    this letter than I am doing, so if I leave out anything important, please supply the omission.

    Your record at Athens has pleased me. I told you when you entered the University of Georgia, I

    wanted you to gain much benefit from your college experience but, above all, I wanted you to be able

    to look back upon it with happy memories. Well,

    Page 14

  • 7/28/2019 Lilly Diary, Vol 7, 1-29,47-82

    6/85

    you made KAO [Greek letters: Kappa Alpha Theta] Theta to you and EX [Greek letters: Sigma Chi]

    selected you as their Sweetheart in competition with over a hundred [p----------ious?] people and you

    have been invited to hops at both Annapolis and West Point, and the fact that you wire invited back in

    each case convinces me that you got by all right. A daddy cant help being proud of things like that.

    And, oh yes, in my enthusiasm I nearly forgot to comment on the fact that youve passed youre work

    with a comfortable margin, too.

    What Im trying to tell you is that I not only feel the normal paternal affection for you, but I like you

    genuinely for all the fine

    Page 15

    qualities you possess. I hope, more than I can tell you, that you share the same feeling for me for,

    believe me B.A., I am your friend as well as your daddy and you can count on me to stand by you

    always.

    Someday you will marry and, knowing you as I do, I feel sure you will pick yourself a good man

    one of whom your mother and I will approve. You will let your heart dictate your choice and that is as

    it should be but your heart (I pray) will assert itself to the extent that the many of your choice will be

    reasonably capable of providing for your material needs. And I know you have enough of your dear

    mothers qualities to be the same wonderful

    Page 16

    companion to him that she has been to me.

    And dont forget that I love you always-

    [Devotedly?]

    Daddy

    be. Then agitate. After awhile the fish will succumb and gloat to top where then may be gathered at

    THE IMPERIAL RESCRIPT

    Declaring War on the USA and BritainThe imperial Rescript declaring war of the United States and Britain [granted?] by his Imperial majesty theemperor on December 8, 1941, is as follows (Board of Information text)

    We, by grace of Heaven, Emperor of Japan, seated in the Throne of line unbroken for ages eternal,enjoin upon ye, Our loyal and brave subjects:

    We hereby declare war on the United States of America and the British Empire. The men andofficers of our Army and Navy shall do their utmost in prosecuting the war, Our public servants of variousdepartments shall perform faithfully and diligently their appointed tasks, and all other subjects of Ours shallpursue their respective duties; the entire nation with a united will shall mobilize their total strength so thatnothing will miscarry in the attainment of our war aims.

    To insure the stability of East Asia and to contribute to world peace is the far-sighted policy whichwas formulated by our Great Illustrious Imperial Grandsire and our Great Imperial Sire Succeeding him

    ands which we lay constantly to heart.To cultivate friendship among nations and to enjoy prosperity in common with all nations has always

    been the guiding principle of Our Empires foreign policy. It has been truly unavoidable and far from Ourwishes that Our Empire has now been brought to cross swords with America and Britain.

    More than four years have passed since China, failing to comprehend the intentions of our Empire,and recklessly courting trouble, disturbed the peace of East Asia and compelled Our Empire to take uparms. Although there has been reestablished the National Government of China, with which Japan haseffected neighborly intercourse and cooperation, the regime which has survived at Chungking relying upon

    American and British protection, still continues its fratricidal opposition.Eager for the realization of their inordinate ambition to dominate the Orient, both America and

    Britain, giving support to the Chungking regime, have aggravated the disturbances in East Asia.Moreover, these two Powers, inducing other countries

    Page 29

    to follow suit, increased military preparations on all sides of Our Empire to challenge us. They haveobstructed by every means our peaceful commerce, and finally resorted to a direct severance of economicrelations, menacing gravely the existence of our Empire.

    Patiently have we waited and long have we endured in the hope that Our Government might relievethe situation in peace, but Our adversaries, showing not the least spirit of conciliation, have unduly delayeda settlement; and in the meantime, they have intensified the economic and political pressure to compelthereby Our Empire to submission.

  • 7/28/2019 Lilly Diary, Vol 7, 1-29,47-82

    15/85

    This trend of affairs would, if left unchecked, not only nullify Our Empires efforts of many years forthe sake of stabilization of East Asia, but also endanger the very existence of Our Nation. The situationbeing such as it is, Our Empire for its existence and self-defense has no other recourse but to appeal toarms and to crush every obstacle in its path.

    The hallowed spirit of Our Imperial Ancestors guarding us from above, We rely upon the loyalty andcourage of Our subjects in Our confident expectation that the task bequeathed by our Forefathers will becarried forward, and that the source of evil will be speedily eradicated and an enduring peace immutablyestablished in East Asia, preserving thereby the glory of Our Empire.(copied from a reprint in the Osaka Mainichi and the Tokyo Mainichi, Thursday, October 8, 1942)
