The days of war

The Day of Valor, also known as Araw ng Kagitingan, remembers the valor of Filipinos and American soldiers during World War II when the Japanese controlled the Philippines, and is observed on or around April 9 each year in the Philippines. The Day of Valor is observed as a national holiday. The general public has the day off, and most schools and businesses are closed. Despite their defeat, the captive soldiers remained strong and emerged as heroes as a result of the battle. The fall of Corregidor was accelerated by the surrender of Bataan. On this day, World War II veterans parade in various places around the Philippines. Small parades take place throughout the Philippines, but the primary feature of the Araw ng Kagitingan is when the country's president delivers a speech.
