19 feb 1945 anni - Battle of Iwo Jima
Descrizione:
This battle was sparked by the desire for a place where B-29 bombers damaged over Japan could land without returning all the way to the Marianas, and for a base for escort fighters that would assist in the bombing campaign. Iwo Jima was defended by roughly 23,000 Japanese army and navy troops.Aggiunto al nastro di tempo:
