Speeding Up The Attack – The Marshalls : Crusade In The Pacific: WWII

The Marshalls

Crusade in the Pacific looks at the Allied campaign against the Japanese outposts in the Marshall Islands. United States Marines launch an amphibious assault that captures the Kwajalein atoll. Later, the Marines move further west and attack the Eniwetok atoll where they also overcome Japanese resistance. Using these atolls as airbases, the Allies bomb the Japanese stronghold of Truk in the Caroline Islands.
