Overview:

As the American invasion forces pounded their way into Manila and beyond, there was still plenty of gruesome struggle in northern Luzon where the Japanese were trying to buy time in a tedious fighting withdrawal. Ridges and hills, so steep they rose 5000 feet in less than one mile, were infested with Japanese determined to hold at all cost. The 121st Infantry was tasked with clearing Route 4 from Libtong to Cervantes, but it was more than they could handle. They became bogged down in Bessang Pass just a few miles from Cervantes from March until early May when, upon receiving fresh artillery support, the Japanese viciously counterattacked.
Attacker: Japanese (Elements of 73rd Infantry Regiment, 19th Division, Araki Force)
Defender: American (Elements of Company B, 1st Battalion, 121st Infantry Regiment, USAFIP (NL))
