    Participants in the 14th Annual Bataan Memorial March in Brainerd step off the starting line, April 9. In 1942, Maj. Gen. Edward King surrendered 10,000 American forces to the Japanese in the Philippines - including A Company of the 194th Tank Battalion. Survivors of the march became prisoners of war and did not return to Brainerd until 1945.
