The men of these units ultimately had to surrender and were part of the infamous Bataan Death March into captivity. They spent more than 3 years in captivity and many did not survive. Their units and individual names are inscribed on the monuments in this park. The park was first dedicated as a living memorial to these men in 1943 and in 1960 the original unit monument was dedicated. In 2002 the monument was greatly enlarged.';
