Just finished reading " LAST MAN STANDING" about Peleliu after Tarawa .six or seven days of head on into a wall of fortified positions. 70 percent casualties.When we got into a bunker complex , in Vietnam , we fell back and called in the world on them.These guys kept going forward ,did I say 70 percent casualties. Lost 50 percent one day and we were not a combat unit any more. Fired artillery on both sides of the road getting us out of there. Peace Brothers
