Jacobs, Colonel Eugene C.

"Blood Brothers A Medic's Sketch Book"


Perhaps, if there had been more Bataans, the course of World War II
might have been altered.

Eugene C. Jacobs

Three Great Things Necessary for Survival
In a Prisoner-of-War Camp.

FAITH IN THE GOOD LORD!
A WILL TO LIVE!
A GOOD SENSE OF HUMOR!
Two doctors helped me achieve these: "Grandma" Jim Bruce-for good
advice. Major Edwin Kagy, who after working all day on the Seriously
Ill wards, came back at night to sing popular songs with his terrific
tenor voice.

Louis J. Voras "Medic."
Field Hospital # 2 on Bataan,
later Hospital at Cabanatuan.

"My men and I were the victims of short sightedness at home, of blind
trust in the respectability of scheming aggressors. The price of our
unpreparedness for World War II was staggering to the imagination.
"The price of unpreparedness for a World War III would be death to
millions of us, and the disappearance from the earth of its greatest
nation."
General Jonathan M. Wainwright, 1946
