Dalton Pass (Nueva Vizcaya-Nueva Ecija Boundary)

More than 17,000 soldiers from the Japanese and Filipino-American sides died during a 1 ½ year battle to control the pass which is the gateway to Cagayan Valley and the Cordilleras. A cross with its message for eternal peace now marks this battle site.
