O knihe

Dare and Live is a demonstration of raw courage in the face of overwhelming
odds against the superior military power of the Imperial Japanese Forces in
Negros Islands, Philippines after the United States Armed Forces in the
Philippines lost in the battles of Bataan and Corrigedor Islands. M/Sgt. Jorge G.
Herrera, Jr. did not surrender to the Japanese Army in Negros Islands, instead he
gathered 3 Filipinos and they started the recruitment and training of other
Guerrilla Soldiers. He established a Bivouac at the mountain sides of Negros
Islands. He equipped his hideout with telephone communication for fast
intelligence. He staged many ambushes against the Japanese Soldiers. The Japanese
Army hired a female Filipino and sent her on a secret mission of setting up an
entrapment for the capture of M/Sgt. Jorge G. Herrera, Jr. It was strange how
Jorge G. Herrera, Jr. discovered the plot of the Japanese Army against him. He
eluded the Japanese Army dragnet. M/Sgt. Jorge G. Herrera, Jr. must have been the
only Filipino Guerrilla Leader who captured, alive, 21 Japanese Soldiers in an
ambush encounter.
