You guys should watch this for Memorial Day…One of the best Real Life Rescue Mission Of Our Time!..”The Great Raid”
On 30 January 1945, drew the members of the U.S. military Special Forces and Filipino guerrilla warriors of the finest and most successful prison camp bust in recorded history. These brave soldiers rescued more than 500 prisoners of war and dealt a severe blow to the Japanese army in the Philippines left. If that were not enough, they did it with only two deaths!
The soldiers who came to the surgery Cabanatuan from several separate locations and groups.
The first group was the Alamo Scouts. This was a group of well-trained, highly capable Special Forces were in, the expert in reconnaissance and scouting work. At this point in the war, the Alamo Scouts had an impressive record of hard tasks, they have successfully completed – and she had never lost a man. There were 13 Alamo Scouts involved in the operation.
The second group of soldiers who were at the Cabanatuan raid, U.S. Army Rangers. The Rangers were a newly created group of Special Forces, which met behind by General Walter Krueger lines for operations, operations to create and run, and pretty much any operation that a larger force of Special Ops soldiers needed. The Rangers had the bulk of U.S. forces.
The third group of soldiers who were involved in the RAID Filipino guerrillas, especially under the command of Captain Juan Pajota. The Filipino guerrillas who fought a highly effective under the guise of war against the Japanese for years, but now they came out of cover to the invading Americans recapture the islands. Hundreds of guerrillas took part in this operation.
The Alamo Scouts were the first and hours and hours, day and night spent scouting the area. When the Rangers and guerrillas arrived, the news was not good – a large part of Japanese soldiers along the highway next to the prison camp on the road. Col. Mucci, the brilliant leader of the Rangers, the raid was postponed until the following day. The soldiers retreated to the village where they were greeted with joy by the Filipinos. The next day everything was ready for the attack. The soldiers waited until the evening, at which time she slipped right outside the walls of the prison compound. In 1945, 19.45 clock or the Rangers and Alamo Scouts to the camp with all the small arms they had – rifles, carbines, hand grenades, Thompson sub-machine guns opened, and Browning Automatic Rifles. A few seconds later, they attacked the camp destroyed and a bazooka gunner’s tanks and trucks in the camp.
In less than a minute had destroyed the Japanese resistance effectively. The only serious casualties were one man dead and another mortally wounded. The Rangers started now on the POWs who were generally confused and surprised to evacuate by their sudden turn of events.While the Rangers and Alamo Scouts
were busy, not the Filipino guerrillas were idle. They had set up a roadblock at the bridge just a little ways up the road from the camp. Once the Rangers attacked the camp, the guerrillas blew the bridge over the river and began to fire on the battalion of Japanese soldiers on the other side of the River. The guerrillas attack was very effective – they had setup their machine guns, soldiers and bazookas to give them a powerful interlocking fields of fire over the River. Wave after wave of Japanese soldiers charged, only to be mowed by the guns of the Filipinos. When all was said and done, the guerrillas had killed or wounded somewhere 500-1000 Japanese soldiers, without a single man himself!
After they completed the destruction of the Japanese unit fell back the guerrillas and provided a cover for the retreating group of Rangers and Alamo Scouts POWs. The whole company reached the sixth Army advancing without accident, ends what still to this day the most successful prison camp break in the story.
