During the surrender of US Forces in the Philippines, the Japanese ordered a Filipino band to play. What song was played?

That's pretty cool. I thought you meant that the Japanese ordered them to play that specific song. That took some balls.

They probably would have executed the entire band, if they knew what they were playing.
