Cushing’s War, The Quest is the second of a two-book series Moving Like Fish In the Sea, following the first book, Cushing’s War, The Rise of the Resistance, completing the account and exploits of Walter M. Cushing’s World War II, posthumously awarded the Distinguished Service Cross for heroism against the Japanese in ww2 occupied Philippines. In April 1942, 60,000 Filipino-American troops surrendered to Japanese forces at the Battle of Bataan. Grim rumors of the Japanese mistreatment of prisoners of war reach guerilla leader Major Cushing, at his headquarters in the mountains of northern Luzon. Cushing travels south to investigate. Ethnically half-mexican with tropical-darkened skin, he secretly passes as a filipino. He learns of the deadly conditions in the prison camps are worse than he could have imagined. But with a Japanese imposed radio blackout, he had no way of communicating his findings to allied command in Australia. Upon hearing a rumor that a shortwave radio had been stashed in lighthouse, he undertakes a dangerous mission to recover it. His confidence from his previouses successes is put to the test.
