Peleliu Beach Landings
Interestingly, the Marines first amphibious operations were in the Pacific theater of WWII. Although some of the beach landings were met with limited if any resistance many times this was not the case. Despite bombings from carrier based bombers designed to soften the resistance, Marines often were met with strong, determined resistance. My Marines are shown charging ashore in the face of heavy machine gun and artillery fire. Casualties were high but the Marines, in the end won the day.
