Flu (or influenza) is caused by a common virus that can affect your nose, throat and lungs. Itâs sometimes referred to as âseasonal fluâ because it tends to occur at around the same time every year. In the UK, people usually get flu between December and March though outbreaks can occur as early as October and as late as May.
On January 30, 1945, during World War II, United States Army Rangers, Alamo Scouts, and Filipino guerrillas liberated more than 500 from the POW camp. After the surrender of tens of thousands of American troops during the Battle of Bataan, many were sent to the Cabanatuan prison camp following the Bataan Death March.
The camps were liberated gradually, as the Allies advanced on the German army. For example, Maidanek (near Lublin, Poland) was liberated by Soviet forces in July 1944, Auschwitz in January 1945 by the Soviets, Bergen-Belsen (near Hanover, Germany) by the British in April 1945, and Dachau by the Americans in April 1945.
