got to love the M1 Grand

too bad they didn't manage to keep it

I knew there was a reason why I didnt want to be there. It is sad. My husband would love to go there but I wouldnt. To much for me. My husband was watching videos on this island & I asked him what he was watching so I did a search 2 watch. No disrespect. I wasnt thinking. Ive had a long night. I could feel from the first video not knowing the story I did not want to be there. It's not a story its history. I understand. God bless those who had to endure

THE GRAPICH IS NOT BLACK AND WHITE

does anyone know the casualties the US suffered? if ther is any?

42,000 Americans, plus ships, planes, tanks etc against 8100 Japanese!

@jasincl yeah but bottom line they lost

0:57 WTF he is shooting at

While being outnumbered and cut off was telling, the Imperial Japanese were NOT poorly trained. They were upto proper IJA standard for that time, which is to say they put up one Hell of a fight with proper employment of all means at their disposal.

480 really??

It's always "one more war."

We at Historical Truth 101 is so thank to our WW II vaterans and their familys. Angela

@Mrkika1 What are you talking about Call of duty is so realistic >_> jk..

@losetheweightnow My friend,it's no joke.I know of 4 power plant operators who worked on the second floor. They all died of cancer. Of course no one could prove it was the Altair.....so the government did nothing.

@Houseofthe7gayboys What from watching the video jeez a real soldier would not have gay boys typed things in his mane

@losetheweightnow I've been to Roi many times. The Altair is the biggest dish I've ever seen.When they turn it on....no one is allowed to do any work over 20 ft. in the air. The lights in the Power Plant always went nuts. I watched my friend tape a flouorecent light onto a broom handle.....climb a ladder....hold up the light...and it lit up because of the dishes power.

@losetheweightnow I worked on Kwaj from 90 to 94. When were you there ? I also dove the Prince Eugen and was lucky enough to dive Bikini Lagoon before it was open to sports diving.My buddies and I stood on the deck of the Saratoga.What a history those islands have.

@jasincl True true i wont ague about that but we still kicked ass we still got the job done from island to island despite very high casualties,they were all under ground but the flamethrower took care off that problem lol

Man the United States kicked yellow ass in the pacific islands

Its kinda cool to see exactly what my grandpa saw when they were on the island.

@KTChamberlain The last german forces surrendered May 2nd the capitulation was signed 7th and came into effect on 8th May so you can say the war ended 2nd May because the rest was just bumf and yea It was august 15th 6 days after Nagasaki dunno why I thought september 2nd

Thank you for serving!

@Mrkika1 i love the way cod4 and world at war has basicly the same gameplay.

@NJRocks281 i realy dont get on what asumption you can draw that conclusion.

@NJRocks281 that is very true

@Mrkika1 I know! I was watching a Afghanistan firefight between a candian squad and the Al-quaeda, and he said 'Canadian Fireifghts are boring' I repsonded with 'And thats a bad thing..Because?'

@Kiba3Af the war ended May 2 1945 in europe and September 2 1945 ind Asia not 1944 o0

@Mrkika1 yeah

@FourArmies woot woot

America is drowning in uneducated morons - all you have to do is look at many of the comments on utube to find the evidence.

@FourArmies I find it absouletely disgraceful to disrespect any veteran from any war no matter how unpopular war is and even if the veteran was once an enemy.

This show just makes me want to cry.

Most color footage you see of WW2 is, indeed, colorized black and white footage, but there is actually some that was originally filmed in color.

i wanna see World War II on Blu-Ray now LoL

So many disrespectful comments.... If a WWII vet saw the amount of disrespectful comments on this video, especially a Kwajalein battle vet, he would be disgusted. Cheers to those of you who actually do have respect for the people who fought to keep your freedom.

too bad the us gave the country awaym, my granddaddy a ww2 vet , is disgusted , [his blood is on the flag] his opinion means something , ASSIMILATE DONT MAKE A FUCKIN MINI IRAN WHEN YOU GET HERE FUCKIN BENIFIT GRABBERS , IM A NURSE I WORK ON SHIT ALL DAY I HATE THEM

not all of it is black and white colorized, but you can tell very easily when it is. but most of this is actual color film

That shit in your pants is his mom's?? what kind of come back is that. omg just stop embarrassing yourself!
