iron

we fought against the japs

but they won in the end

we went inland

away from the coast

 

do you see the mountain there? 

we gotta climb that 

up we went

 

we found a crashed american plane

and the pilot 

we buried him by the wreck near a big tree 

we found his wallet with a calling card 

we were the last to see him for decades

his location became a mystery

so many looked for him and his plane

the lost american air ace

who defended bataan from the japs

over a dozen teams and expeditions

they found his nemesis first

the smashed jap plane and pilot
