Manenggon was a concentration camp operated by the Japanese Imperial Army in 1944 during the Japanese occupation of Guam. The camp was located along a 1.5 miles (2.4 km) stretch of the Ylig River near Yona. Over 10,000 of the native Chamorro people were forcibly marched to the camp in the rain and forced to survive with few resources.
