Ghost Soldiers

In the war to end all wars
A fight for the island
Months spent in isolation
With no hope in sight
A battle destined to be lost
With no reinforcements
How many of our men will die?

Captured and stripped of weapons
The death march begins
No food or water for days
Beaten and executed
No longer seen as human
Defeat and suffering
How many of us have to die?

Liberators gone but not forgotten
How many rangers will we send?
Ghost soldiers, a sacrifice to rescue
Last survivors saved in the end

In the undercover of night
The rescue begins
We march behind enemy lines
With deadly purpose
We save our brothers in arms
A tale from survivors
About the death march of Bataan
