Overview:
As fighting continued along the Abucay Line, the Japanese decided to make an amphibious landing on the east coast of Bataan. The hope that such a move-used successfully against the British at Malaya-would force the American-Filipino forces to abandon their current positions. The Americans of the Service Command, responsible for beach defense, had just two weeks to prepare and had at their disposal only constabulary, grounder airmen, and naval personnel with which to repel attacks. The Japanese were hardly better prepared, lacking both the time for preparation and the maps necessary for crafting a detailed assault plan. The Japanese landed at Longoskawayan Point, well away from their intended landing spot. The first confirmed sighting of the Japanese force came at 0840 hours. They were then spotted advancing up the slopes of Mt. Pucot, thus gaining complete tactical surprise-but at the cost of their own bewilderment.Attacker: American (USMC) (3rd Battalion, 4th Marine Regiment, 3rd Pursuit Squadron and elements of Naval Battalion)
Defender: Japanese (20th Infantry Regiment)
