  World War II	Between 1 Apr and 2 Jun 1945	Okinawa, Japan   [1]
  	The Battle of Okinawa (April 1, 1945-June 22, 1945) was the last major battle of World War II, and one of the bloodiest. On April 1, 1945—Easter Sunday—the Navy’s Fifth Fleet and more than 180,000 U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps troops descended on the Pacific island of Okinawa for a final push towards Japan. The invasion was part of Operation Iceberg, a complex plan to invade and occupy the Ryukyu Islands, including Okinawa. Though it resulted in an Allied victory, kamikaze fighters, rainy weather and fierce fighting on land, sea and air led to a large death toll on both sides.

Said it before but I can not get over the number of people who were in WWII from Coudy. Most people know of their Dad or Mom serving but I was oblivious to all the greatest generation. God bless them and those who supported them. 1 Like · Reply · 4d
