Summary

[edit]
Description

"Marines of the Second Regiment, Second Division, come off the front lines after twenty days of slugging it out with, and defeating the Japs in their assigned sector of the battle of Saipan, which included the town of Garapan. Their rest was short-lived for two days later they were rushed back into the lines to support hard pressed Army troops, and to secure the remaining two miles of the island."
