Description:... I shall return. Many are familiar with these famous words spoken by Gen. MacArthur before he left the Philippines as the Japanese began their takeover of the island nation. But few know the stories of those left behind, including the struggle for survival by Iowa soldier Dick Lang. Refusing to surrender, Lang joined the Filipinos as a guerrilla soldier in an attempt to liberate the country, and ultimately, to win his own freedom. Harrowing and heroic, this record of jungle life and guerrilla warfare is a true story of personal endurance and bravery.
