Biography
COLONEL PAUL J. TOTH, JR.
After escaping the province of Bataan just before it fell to invading Japanese forces, Lt. Col. Helen Hennessey found herself on the island of Corregidor in the Philippines. This image was taken there, where she helped take care of the sick and wounded in an underground 1,000-bed hospital.
Lt. Col. Helen Hennessey was captured as a prisoner of war in 1942 and sent to the Santo Tomas internment camp in Manila. She was one of the many nurses captured on the island of Corregidor. This is an image of many of those nurses being rescued when Santo Tomas was eventually liberated by American troops in 1945. [12 February 1945]
