Japanese Landings on Luzon-December 1941 with John McManus - Episode 604
Unauthorized History of the Pacific War · 1h10m · Jun 16
World War II Tactics & Battles Leadership & Command

Seth Paridon and Jon Parshall bring John McManus on to walk through the December 1941 Japanese landings on Luzon — Aparri, Vigan, Legaspi, and the main event at Lingayen Gulf — plus the panic in Manila after Clark Field and MacArthur's halting response. The episode benefits from McManus's deep knowledge of the US Army in the Pacific, and the trio get into the operational detail of why the Philippine defence collapsed so quickly. Over an hour of three knowledgeable voices reconstructing a campaign that most accounts compress into a paragraph before Bataan takes over, delivering the kind of granular operational coverage that turns a footnote into a fully realized battle narrative.
