Title: Philippine Invasion, 1941-1942.
Caption: Formosan labor forces attached to the Japanese Army building roads through the Bataan Mountains, early 1942. Copied from the Japanese book: "Philippine Expeditionary Force," published in 1943. Original Japanese caption: "…on the Mariveles Mountains. Here, too, the work of constructing roads through the mountains by the Formosan laborers was outstanding. It tends to show that they must have worked hard in the mountains of Formosa."
