Product Highlights
Hallas. Perhaps the U.S. Marines' most memorable battle, the fighting at Iwo Jima in March of 1945 saw a staggering casualty rate of 39 percent; it was also, however, the most highly decorated engagement in USMC history. This historical volume focuses on the 27 Americans who received the Medal of Honor for courageous service during the campaign, while also paying tribute to those lost during combat. Readers will also be treated to a detailed account of the fighting itself. 424 pages, B&W photos, 6¼"x 9¼", hardcover.
