About this listen

After the brutal learning curve at Tarawa, the Marine Corps came into this fight prepared, equipped, and determined to lead the next phase of the war. For the first time, their landings were backed by meaningful fire support and rehearsed coordination. The chaos of earlier battles gave way to calculated strikes. This episode follows their path from the surf of Roi-Namur to the contested terrain of Kwajalein. Along the way, we’ll explore the courage that carried them forward, the lessons that reshaped their doctrine, and the heroism that defined this campaign.
