Bloody Beaches: The Marines at Peleliu - Paperback
Details
by Usmc (Ret ). Brigadier General Go Gayle (Author)
On D-Day 15 September 1944, five infantry battalions of the 1st Marine Division's 1st, 5th, and 7th Marines, in amphibian tractors (LVTs) lumbered across 600-800 yards of coral reef fringing smoking, reportedly smashed Peleliu in the Palau Island group and toward five selected landing beaches. That westward anchor of the 1,000-mile-long Caroline archipelago was viewed by some U.S. planners as obstacles, or threats, to continued advances against Japan's Pacific empire. The historic battles of the Marines at Peleliu are recounted in this U.S. Marines history book.
