Palawan WW2 memorial museum, Puerto Princesa, Philippines
In 1944 the area was controlled, as were the rest of the Philippines, by the Imperial Japanese Army which had captured the country and held the people along with US Military prisoners under brutal conditions. In Palawan American POW’s were being held in order to construct a Japanese airfield. The prisoners were held under harsh conditions with little to eat and a lack of medical care.
In 1944 the US Military returned to the Philippines to liberate the islands. The US had been sending flights over the island and had conducted a few bombing runs. The prisoners in Palawan, officially designated as Camp 10-A, had dug air raid shelters in order to escape any bombs dropped on the camp. The Japanese army had been seeing ships passing by and had endured a few raids so they knew a landing force was imminent. With each bombing run or ship sighting the treatment of the POW’s got worse.
The location of the POW Internment Camp is now a park: Plaza Cuartel located adjacent to Immaculate Conception Cathedral, the city’s main Church.
During the tour, you’ll find many interesting things inside the museum. The place is sprawling with old military warfare and vehicles. Different weapons of old are carefully preserved and showcased inside glass cases. Guns of different shapes and sizes are a sight to behold, not to mention the World War II jeep that is parked near the entrance. One of the famous artifacts displayed are the old weaponry and clothes of the Palaweño guerillas who fought in the war. Aside from weaponry and armor, paintings are posted on the wall depicting not only the Word Wars but also the cultural heritage of Palawan. There are also posters containing information on land, sea and air vehicles used in WW2.
Entering the Palawan Special Battalion WW2 Memorial Museum only costs about P30. Children below 10 years old are given free entrance. The museum is open daily from 8am to 12nn and at 1pm to 5pm.

It is definitely a must visit: the Palawan Special Battalion WW2 Memorial Museum. Needless to say, the Philippines does not fall short of experience when it comes to the great World Wars. This tropical country has had its fair share of invaders and has heroically defended its homefront through sheer will and determination.
It was during World War II (WW2) that the Japanese invaders tried to subdue the country to their iron fist rule. With the support of the American allied forces, the Philippines was victorious in defending “Inang Bayan.” But the war brought about many tragedies around the world. Societies scarred forever, the war left many nations in need of political and economic change.
Many remnants from the war were discovered and are now displayed in the island’s museum. This house preserving the military artifacts is known as the Palawan Special Battalion WW2 Memorial Museum. This is truly a moment in history captured,when you get there the museum team are great,taking a walk through the museum.

The P.O.W. Palawan Massacre Memorial, Puerto Princesa
I must admit that Margie and I did very little research on the Philippine trip probably thinking, Philippines. Everybody knows about these Islands, and was completely surprised by the military sights. Nowhere did it tell on our itineraries about how many important World War II memorials there were to visit.
Vim walked us over to Plaza Cuartel on the opposite side of Immaculate Conception Cathedral and towards an engraved marker. The marker was in Tagalog, the Filipino language. A few more feet to a marker in English. I'll let you watch the video and I'm not quite sure what was more horrific. Standing and reading this or our previous visit to the Memorial Hall of the Nanjing Massacre.
I have no words to describe our emotions other than tears....

AS GOOD AS DEAD | The Story of the Palawan Massacre Survivors
Stephen L. Moore tells the heroic story of eleven Americans who defied certain death at the hands of their captors. The Palawan Massacre was one of the many atrocities of World War 2. Units of the Japanese 14th Army in attempt to prevent the rescue of American POWs, gunned down many of the US servicemen under their capture. Amazingly, 11 survived.

This film is in terrible condition. It was found with a large number of other films that had been stored for many years in less than desirable conditions. I save what I can. If there is a better known public copy I will delete this one.
