The Filipinos had suffered a lot under the cruelty of the Japanese envaders. Children were killed. Women were raped. Elders became slaves. Many died because of the very known death march of the prisons of war wherein Filipinos were dominant. And when the American soldiers and Filipinos were nearly defeated in Bataan, the Igorots went and be the eye of the American soldiers driving the tanks.
