In 1942, U.S. Soldiers Were Hunted by 'Aswang' in the Philippine Jungle

In 1942, a U.S. Army signal detachment was sent deep into Capiz province, Philippines, to establish a radio relay before the Japanese invasion. The locals warned them about something that smiled like a neighbor by day and flew through rooftops at night. They called it Aswang. When Private Morrison vanished without a trace his dog tags found hanging twelve feet high where no man could reach the soldiers realized the village superstitions were terrifyingly real. This is the true account of American soldiers who learned that some enemies can't be stopped with bullets, and some rules exist for reasons the army never taught them.
