Bataan Death March.

Yeesh. I might not have made such flippant jokes about the interminable walk from the reception to our hotel rooms had I read these pages first.

The Bataan Memorial is in Santa Fe, New Mexico, on the south side of Pecos Trail right before you turn to get to St. John's. I think we're the only state to have a Bataan Memorial Day. The reason is most of the few survivors were from New Mexico, via the 200th and 515th Regiments.

Yay! Meet me in hell on the corner of 666th and Damnation streets! There's a great little tea house nearby..
