"...the path we took became littered with the bodies of dead Americans, especially around the water wells, where the guards, infuriated with the mass of pushing humanity, bayoneted anyone within reach."

Abandoned on Bataan: One Man's Story of Survival [Paperback]

p. 73

"For by now, if a man couldn't keep up with the line or fell out on the march, they shot him or bayoneted him on the spot.  They made no effort to pick up the bodies, just left them lying there for all to see.  I found out later, from those behind me, that the path we took became littered with the bodies of dead Americans, especially around the water wells, where the guards, infuriated with the mass of pushing humanity, bayoneted anyone within reach.  Those in the rear said it soon became impossible to get to the wells without stepping over dead men.

It was well-named: Bataan Death March."
