Oral History Interview with Daniel Crowley, April 17, 2012
The National Museum of the Pacific War presents an oral interview with Daniel Crowley. Crowley left school at 16, electing to go to work. In October, 1940, he joined the Army Air Corps. He describes his journey to the Philippines, where he landed in March, 1941. He was stationed at Nichols Field. Crowley recalls being shipped across Manila Bay to Bataan in Christmas Day and fighting the Japanese there until the US forces surrendered. Instead of surrendering, Crowley made it to Corregidor. Whe nCOrregidor was surrendered, Crowley was sent back to Manila and paraded through the streets with other Americans before being sent to Cabanatuan. From there, Crowley was sent to Palawan and, with others, was forced to build an airfield in the jungle. Before the massacre at Palawan, Crowley was sent back to Cabanatuan, then placed aboard a hell ship and sent to Japan, where he was forced to work in a copper mine.
