Chapter 1: Into the Lion's Den

Arriving in the Philippines in 1942, Parsons found himself amidst the chaos and devastation of the Japanese invasion. As the enemy forces tightened their grip on the archipelago, Parsons was forced to go underground and join the growing resistance movement.

Together with Filipino guerrillas, he launched daring raids against the Japanese occupiers, sabotaging their operations and disrupting their supply lines. Despite facing constant danger and the ever-present threat of capture, Parsons' unyielding determination never wavered.

Yet, amidst the adversity, Parsons found solace in the resilience and spirit of the Filipino people. He witnessed firsthand the bravery and ingenuity of the guerillas, who fought tirelessly for their freedom and their country.
