Japanese Prison Camp No. 1, Cabanatuan, P.I.

On verso: This prisoner was so hungry, that he escaped one night through the fence and went to a neighboring barrio (town) and got some food from a Filipino. He got caught coming back through the fence by a Japanese guard. The Japanese Camp commander got the whole camp out of bed and assembled at one of the camp stages where he made a speech on the futility of escape. The prisoner was paraded around camp for several days (without food or water) and then taken out of camp and beheaded.
