80 years ago today! The Battle of Peleliu, codenamed Operation Stalemate II by the US military, was fought between the United States and Japan during the Mariana and Palau Islands campaign of World War II, from 15 September to 27 November 1944, on the island of Peleliu. U.S. casualties on Peleliu numbered 1,544 killed in action and 6,843 wounded. Notably, the 1st Marine Regiment suffered 70 percent casualties—1,749 men—in six days of fighting while the 7th Marine Regiment suffered 46 percent casualties. Both would be considered “combat ineffective” under current combat power standards. Nearly 11,000 Japanese were killed; only 301 personnel, a small fraction of the Japanese forces on the island, were taken prisoner. 🇺🇸👕🎖️** Find All Of Our Exclusive Patriotic & History-Oriented Merchandise Here - Every Sale Supports The Channel And Keeps Us "On The Air": ☕ If you appreciate our content and want to support us further, direct donations are always welcome at: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/lionheart PLEASE SUBSCRIBE, CLICK THE 'BELL' ICON FOR ALERTS ON NEW CONTENT - AND SHARE THIS VIDEO TO HELP US GROW AND KEEP HISTORY HAPPENING! http://www.lionheart-filmworks.com/store Some other videos you might like on our Channel: 400 Evolution of the United States Army Uniform: https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/n3Q6RyDFAJI Sergeant Alvin York - Oct. 8th 1918 Medal Of Honor Moment: https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/ad9FWugOIyM "Civil War Firearms: The Guns of North & South" Full Documentary: https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/S6U9oqXaLWk "The Story of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier: 100 Years of Honor" - Special Edition: "Civil War Uniforms of Blue & Grey - The Evolution" Volume 1: https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/n8MAlu2NEps ✈️🚁⭐ ** ONE WAY YOU CAN SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL!
