The last survivor of the army and navy nurses captured by the Japanese in the Philippines in 1942, Mildred Manning, died recently.  She was 98.  Her obituary appeared in the New York Times on March 11, 2013.  She had joined the army in 1939, as she said, to see the world.  "And what I saw was a prison camp."  She was one of the army nurses known as "the Angels of Bataan and Corregidor," the two surrender sites. Their story was published as a book in 1999 called We Band of Angels.
