Overview:

The first Battle of Bataan was in its seventh day and had reached a crucial juncture. The 51st Infantry Regiment (PA) successfully counterattacked the Japanese at its front but advanced too far forward. The Japanese attacked from three sides and under intense pressure, the 51st Regiment broke and ran, leaving a gaping hole in the line. The 43rd Infantry on the left end of the line had to react quickly or face the utter destruction of the entire defensive position. Luckily for the Philippine troops, Colonel Eugene T. Lewis, Regimental instructor, was in command. Instead of infiltrating behind the new defense line, the Japanese smashed headlong into Lewis' ad hoc formation. . .
Attacker: Japanese (141st Infantry Regiment, 65th Brigade)
Defender: Filipino (43rd Infantry Regiment(PA), 41st Division(PA) and Provisional Battalion, 43rd Infantry(PA), 41st Engineer Battalion, Signal & Quartermaster Troops)
