Japanese Soldiers on Captured American Gun

(Original Caption) 11/16/1942-Philippines: Apparently the Japs knew nothing of the rules of the prize ring, as regards fair fighting or scoring by rounds. They believed that the winning of one round meant the decision in the whole fight. So they were jubilant when they captured this big American Gun on Bataan. When the bell rang for the end of the final round there were no banzais. The rising sun had set.
