Operation Watchtower | The Fight for Guadalcanal Begins

WWII Pacific Theater history. Each episode covers the battles, campaigns, and decisions that shaped the war in the Pacific. My focus covers three areas: the island-hopping campaigns that defeated Japan, the cultural forces that made Japanese soldiers fight to the death, and the survival stories of those caught behind enemy lines. The amphibious assaults, the strategic decisions, and the human cost of victory. What matters are the real experiences—Real warfare. Real warriors. Real history.
