| Description: | The officer commanding five thousand Japanese troops entrenched on Tarawa boasted that the island would not be taken by a million men in a hundred years. He was right; it was taken by eighteen thousand men in three days. Survivors from the 2nd Marine Division that invaded this Pacific atoll of 291 acres return to commemorate the 1,113 Marines who died to capture it. |
