About this listen

Hattie Brantley never stopped tending to wounded GIs whether in the jungles of the Bataan peninsula, in the tunnels of Corregidor, or during her long imprisonment at the Santo Tomas Internment Camp. As a POW for nearly three years, she didn’t let starvation, disease, lack of medical supplies, or the brutal treatment she received from Japanese guards stop her in caring for the young GI casualties under her care. Today’s podcast tells the story of Hattie Brantley, better known as the Angel of Bataan. Special thanks to my wife, Christina Diane Ulferts, who will give voice to Hattie’s quotes in this episode.
