Less than ten hours after the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor, the Japanese invasion of the Philippines began. It catalyzed the formation of the U.S. Army’s First Filipino Battalion to fight for their motherland. Why did Top-Secret missions go behind enemy lines on the islands for over two years before their liberation?
From the Regiments, the “1st Reconnaissance Battalion and 978th Signal Service Company were the first and only Army units to undertake such a specialized mission during the course of the Second World War.” --------- US Army Intelligence and Security Command May 1985
