*
Date: September 17, 1944*
*
Battle Location: Peleliu, Palau Islands*
*
Battle Type: USMC (Assault) vs Japan (Defend)*

Description:
*
Chesty Puller's First Battalion is to lead the way up "Bloody Nose Ridge", the high ground on the island of Peleliu. The ordeal is even worse for the Marines than Guadalcanal. The ridge is composed mainly of coral, and is filled with sharp rises and crevices. As they are moving up through the razor sharp coral, on Marine after another is being cut down by enemy fire. Casaulties are horrendous! At times the fighting has been hand to hand, and each time a Japanese body rolls down the ragged slopes, a cheer erupts from below.*
