Le isole di Saipan e Tinian si trovavano sotto il controllo giapponese dal 1941 e erano considerate parte dell'Impero. Combattendo fianco a fianco, le unità dell'esercito e dei Marines furono testimoni della più imponente battaglia tra corazzati della guerra del Pacifico. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
The 1944 invasion of Saipan was the first two-division amphibious assault conducted by US forces in World War II. Saipan and Tinian had been under Japanese control since 1914 and, heavily colonized, they were considered virtually part of the Empire. The struggle for Saipan and Tinian was characterized by the same bitter fighting that typified the entire Central Pacific campaign. Fighting side-by-side, Army and Marine units witnessed the largest tank battle of the Pacific War, massed Japanese banzai charges, and the horror of hundreds of Japanese civilians committing suicide to avoid capture. In this book Gordon Rottman details the capture of these vital islands that led to the collapse of Prime Minister Tojo's government. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
