Dare and Live is a demonstration of raw courage in the face of overwhelming

odds against the superior military power of the Imperial Japanese Forces in

Negros Islands, Philippines after the United States Armed Forces in the

Philippines lost in the battles of Bataan and Corrigedor Islands. M/Sgt. Jorge G.

Herrera, Jr. did not surrender to the Japanese Army in Negros Islands, instead he

gathered 3 Filipinos and they started the recruitment and training of other

Guerrilla Soldiers. He established a Bivouac at the mountain sides of Negros

Islands. He equipped his hideout with telephone communication for fast

intelligence. He staged many ambushes against the Japanese Soldiers. The Japanese

Army hired a female Filipino and sent her on a secret mission of setting up an

entrapment for the capture of M/Sgt. Jorge G. Herrera, Jr. It was strange how

Jorge G. Herrera, Jr. discovered the plot of the Japanese Army against him. He

eluded the Japanese Army dragnet. M/Sgt. Jorge G. Herrera, Jr. must have been the

only Filipino Guerrilla Leader who captured, alive, 21 Japanese Soldiers in an

ambush encounter.
