Military members, civilians, volunteers and veterans begin a 26.2-mile journey during the 2016 Bataan Memorial Death March, March 20, 2016, at White Sands Missile Range, N.M. The annual event draws more participants each year and provides today’s generation with a reminder of harsh conditions that World War II veterans were forced to endure during their 60-mile march to a prisoner of war camp in the Philippines (U.S. Air Force photo/Senior Airman Harry Brexel)
