Sean discusses the life of Conrado Rigor, Sr. with his son, Conrado 'Sluggo' Rigor, Jr. who is completing a book commemorating his father's heroic final World War Two battle at Bessang Pass on the island of Luzon in the Philippines. Leading his troops in a two-month-long assault he made history; ultimately he and his guerrilla fighters captured the Tiger of Malaya, General Yamashita; additionally, he accepted the surrender of Admiral Shimamoto and his battle flag, which had been flown from the conning tower of a midget submarine that attacked the USS Arizona at Pearl Harbor.
