Telling His Story: POW #1000 recounts the details of J.C. Pardues story of the brutality of the Bataan Death March and Japanese POW Camps. This memoir, compiled and edited by his daughter, Janis Pardue Hill, Ph.D., covers his enlistment in the United States Army Air Corps, the succeeding battle to hold Bataan, the surrender of Bataan, the brutal, inhumane treatment he received on the death march and in POW camps, his time as an enslaved person in Japan, and his ultimate perseverance to live a Christian life.

Most prominent among her fathers memories was the miracle of his Bible. Even after being directly hit by a fragmentation bomb, confiscation in a prisoner of war camp, and disposal on the hell ship the Nissyo Maru, her fathers Bible always found its way back to him. His most treasured possession, the Bible made it home to the states with POW #1000 after the Japanese finally surrendered.

The book Telling His Story: POW #1000: The Bataan Death March and Japanese POW Camps by Janis Pardue Hill was exhibited by self-publishing and book marketing company ReadersMagnet at the 2023 LibLearnX: The Library Learning Experience, which was held at New Orleans Earnest N. Morial Convention Center, New Orleans, Louisiana on January 27-30, 2023.

Telling His Story: POW #1000: The Bataan Death March and Japanese POW Camps is a memoir of the authors father who was one of the survivors of the infamous Bataan Death March and two and half years as a captive and slave of the Japanese.

As a daughter of a World War II veteran, Janis wants everyone to know that eighty years ago, in a country on the other side of the world, men fought, suffered, and died for their country. She reminds readers that the sacrifices of these men are worth remembering and honoring from generation to generation. She also addresses the lack of information in most history books.

Janis explains, Although the Bataan Death March is recognized by historians as one of the most horrific examples of mistreatment of prisoners and blatant war crimes in the history of our country and the world, I have been amazed for years that a large number of individuals educated individuals do not know what happened in the Philippines after the bombing of Pearl Harbor (1941) and in the POW slave camps in Japan after the infamous march of death (1942-1945).

Through her fathers prolific writings, Janis understanding of World War II increases. At the same time, she realizes that the Bataan Death March completely transformed the soldiers lives in a way they never imagined.
