Mamerto Hermosa survived the Bataan Death March and, later, the disease and cruelties of Camp O'Donnell. But his miseries only increased after he was freed as part of a prisoner release program and made his way home to his wife and daughter in Santa Lucia, in northern Luzon. There, a collaborator told the Japanese he still might be a combatant, so Japanese soldiers dragged him from his home, put a noose around his neck and hanged him after he watched the soldiers rape his young wife.
