	PSHS - Insignia of the Philippine Scouts
		The Philippine Scouts were a component of the Regular Army which had its roots in the urge for empire which captivated the leading powers of Europe — and the United States — in the last quarter of the 19th Century.
		Scout companies campaigned in Southern Luzon in the early years, were mobilized on Samar in 1906-07 to quell a rebellion whose first volley was the destruction of the 38th Company of Scouts, and assaulted the fortress of Bud Bagsak on Jolo Island in 1913 under the command of Brigadier General John Pershing.
		With the redesignation of the Scout units as regiments of the Regular Army, the regimental numerals replaced the former "P." Shown are early (pre-1924) officers' insignia of the 45th, 57th and 62nd Infantry, along with enlisted collar discs worn by the 26th Cavalry, 45th and 62nd Infantry, and the 14th Engineers.

	PSHS - History
		Even though they performed extraordinarily well before the war as regular U.S. Army soldiers charged with the defense of the Philippines, it is their spirited combat against the Japanese in one action after another from early December 1941, until the fall of the Philippines in May of 1942, for which they are most famous.
		By any standard these decorations reflect the heroism of a large number of Philippine Scouts who fought early in the war under extremely difficult conditions marked by inadequate food and medicine, deteriorating health due to tropical diseases, obsolete weapons and ammunition, and no hope of support from the United States.
		The fall of the Philippines was the largest defeat of an American armed force in the history of the United States, and the Bataan Death March was the most brutal series of war crimes ever committed against surrendering American or Philippine soldiers.

	Jungle Patrol - 12. The Regulars in Samar
		The Scout companies and Constabulary detachments, withdrawn from other islands and sent to Samar, gradually raised the combined force of native troops to about 1,700 or 1,800 men, but the results of the first half-year's campaigning were not wholly reassuring.
		Scouting with an insufficient force for an elusive and half savage enemy, through virgin forests and dense jungles; wading in water courses, tortured with leeches, and dependent upon native carriers of doubtful loyalty, it is not to be wondered at that the campaign was long and unproductive of brilliant actions.
