Griffey and Edmund Dabney had passed away, and thankfully were spared the never- dreamed-of atrocities heir son would be orced to endure. Life, death a captive December 7, 1941, found him in the Philipp ines. My mother his ister Elizabeth Dabney Hadley, about this time, received a letter expressing his assur- a nce and determination or a successful end to he war. It was not to be. Not yet.

The commander slipped out of the count ry, leaving his troops to fend for themselves. We ust never let that happen again. Running out of ammunition, the troops were captured and forced into the death march to Bataan. then was placed in POW Camp No. 501, here he lived through unspeakable inhumane treatment for about two years.

I September 1944, he, along with approxi- ately 1,780 other POWs, was crowded into the and hold of the Arisan Maru, part of a Japanese merchant fleet. Torpedoed by an American submarine, the ship broke in half. In October 1944, my mother received notification from the War Depart- ent that all aboard were lost. (Five survivors were later found.) he letter continues: Read Dabney Jr. stands with patriots ho have dared to die that freedom might live and grow and increase its blessings.

Freedom lives in a way that humbles the undertaking of Uncle Edmund was a ine Christian man. I believe, had he sur- ived the war, he would ave forgiven those who had done such orrible things to him.

But not as many and certainly not nearly as orrid as those suffered through by Col.

In Camp No. 501, the survivors were starved, beaten, humiliated. Aboard the crowded many were asphyxiated.

Indubitably, Gen. Douglas MacArthur, first in his graduating West Point class of 1903 a nd a celebrated wartime hero, was a brilliant man. He is credit- with impressive military feats. Yet, in the Philippines after the earl Harbor bombing, he was embarrassingly unprepared. Abandoning his troops, he was ordered out of the country by President Roosevelt.
