Are the stories of these remaining scouts being recorded?  Is there an archive of photos and stories of their missions that has been compiled?  I understand many of their missions were classified, but are now unclassified.

I'm reading "Shadows  In The Jungle" by Larry Alexander.  Its about the U.S. Army's Alamo Scouts.  I know Filipinos were involved in a lot of their missions, but unfortunately they are sorely absent in the pages of this book.  This needs to be rectified.

Raleigh:
Thanks, I updated and modified the surviving list and the totals.

Mario:
The PS exploits are well documented but of course it's hard to capture every single Scout's recollection. There is a full length documentary dedicated to the Scouts currently in production.

However if you're asking specifically about the Alamo Scouts, they are not the same unit as the Philippine Scouts. There were indeed many Filipinos in the Alamo Scouts, one of whom was Rafael Ileto, the former AFP Chief of Staff and Defense Secretary of the Philippines.

Robert,

Perhaps you meant this post for another subject line such as "Units".  This is a listing which updates the names of surviving members.

Since you do not include the nature or date of this text, I can only guess that it is in reference to the Battle of the Points, due to the description.  During this action, the 86th and 88th FA provided indirect fire for these Infantry regiments cited, so I'm not sure what you mean by asking if they "served as Infantry" other than they provided artillery support in this action.  The 57th and 45th Infantry Regiments were able to repel the attacks both forward and to the rear, much to the surprise of the Japanese.  An entire Japanese Infantry battalion was wiped out during this action and another severly crippled (1st and 2nd battalions, 20th Infantry), a credit to the defenders of Bataan in this region.

For further reading on the subject, I recommend "Bataan; Our Last Ditch" by John Whitman, or "The Fall of the Philippines" by Louis Morton, and of course, "Anywhere, Anytime", by COL John Olson.

Regards,
Raleigh

Sir,

Death March survivor finally tells story
By TOM BERG / THE ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER

FOUNTAIN VALLEY – All those years, no one knew about April 1942.

Elias Coloma, now 90, was just the wicker basket guy at the Orange County Swap Meet.
