Arthur Wermuth, the One-Man Army of Bataan, with one of his Philippine Scouts. (Library of Congress)
In 1942, Maj. Arthur Wermuth was crawling through mud to avoid a Japanese patrol marching through the jungle. The invaders had no idea he was there. When they passed, he continued crawling on the jungle floor.
His destination was a ridgeline that overlooked the nearby enemy camp. He climbed to the top of the ridge and drew out his Thompson submachine gun. He then let loose on the encampment. The Japanese, now confused and panicking, thought the Americans had slipped into their rear.
But it was only Wermuth, the “One-Man Army of Bataan.”
