Bataan Death March The forcible transfer of
75,000 American and Filipino prisoners of war in the Philippines from the Bataan peninsula to prison camps
Beheadings, cut throats and casual shootings were the more common and merciful actions — compared to bayonet stabbings, rapes, disembowelments, numerous rifle butt beatings and a deliberate refusal to allow the prisoners food or water while keeping them continually marching for nearly a week in tropical heat.

Doolittle Raid U.S. bombers attack
Tokyo and other Japanese cities in April 1942. (Here Lt. Col. James H.
Doolittle wires a Japanese medal to a bomb, for "return" to its originators in the first U.S. air raid on the Japanese Home Islands.)
Raid does little damage, but shows that Japan is vulnerable.
