I found a Notice From the Japanese war in the Philippines of a Prisoner of war
for a man Named William Brown. P.F.C USA

They evidentially were able to send messages to family notifying that they were P.O.W's

Its a Treasure now
That war was the Death March of bataan in 1942.

The march, involving the forcible transfer of 75,000 American and Filipino prisoners of war captured by the Japanese in the Philippines from the Bataan peninsula to prison camps. its said that between 6-11 thousand men died..
We'll never know if William Brown. P.F.C made it home....I'll pretend he did
