Damoritis, Luzon, The Philippines 1941-12-22 (13 others)

Overview:

When reports arrive that the Japanese 47th Infantry Division has come ashore between the villages of Damoritis and Dagupan, the forces at General Jonathan Wainwright disposal were less than ideal: the competent 26th Cavalry...and the rest of the Philippine Army, which was poorly trained and equipped. Fearing encirclement, Wainwright initially attempted to strike at the Japanese with the meager forces at his disposal, but this act of desperation met with predictably disastrous results. The remnants of the failed attack fell back to prepared positions in Damoritis, where they await the imminent Japanese assault.

Defender: Filipino (71st Division and remnants of the 26th Cavalary Division (Philippine Scouts))
