nw NC | I happened upon this YouTube video about visitors today touring the sites of the 1944 WWII battle to take the Pacific island of Peleliu. Extremely interesting to see what remains after 75 years. Worth your time to watch.

Invasion started Sept 15 1944 and was thought it would be a swift 3 or 4 day fight. It lasted 73 days . 73 days of hell for the men who fought there.
