    We have a similar story here in Italy: Rosario Rondazzo (Gold Medal to valor) was fighting in Russia when he got hit by a mortar round and had his arm amputated. To cover the retreat of his unit he reached a fixed machine gun manuvering it with his lef arm and squeazing the trigger with his mouth. Eventually he got overun and killed. Later an officer found his body, next to him his teeth that were crushed by the recoil of the weapon while firing.

His book helmet for my pillow is amazing, his description of the Indian’s gallantry is beautiful. if you like the actor for Bob Leckie in the pacific, he voices the audiobook on audible. It is a really good listen, and with Leckie’s background in writing, is extremely poetic.

    My Great Grandpa who was a Native American from the Cherokee Tribe fought there on that same exact battle. Joined the Marine Corps at such a young age before the war even started to support his poor family in the depression, and soon found himself across the pacific fighting across island after island.

    There was also another soldier in the same battle named Rodger Young that was nearly blind and is deaf. He faked the hearing test to get into the Army and is a Medal of Honor recipient for diverting machine fire from a nearby bunker. Despite being wounded twice, he continued to get to the bunker and lobbed grenades into it, but he was killed in the process of throwing grenades into the bunker which saved his platoon during a retreat. He has a song about him called "The Ballad of Rodger Young".

    I remember reading about that Japanese unit. They were just a detachment of their main unit. Arriving by Destroyer, six of them to be exact, they landed unopposed and supposedly undetected with orders to dig in and wait for the rest of their parent unit.
    Ichiki, though, disobeyed and opted to attack despite being warned he would be gravely outnumbered and that the full breadth of the US Marines on the island were unknown.
    Having fought in China, he's actually the guy who kicked off the whole Second Sino-Japanese War. This event is better known as the Marco Polo Bridge Incident. He was also supposed to help spearhead the landings on Midway and occupy the islands. So, he may have been chomping at the bit to get over the fact that he and fellows were turned back.
    Some more recent claims say that Ichiki was ordered to assault the heavily defended American positions. Part of the reason why, was to cover up the defeat at Midway. But at the same time, the Japanese High Command had, apparently, also underestimated the size of the American landings and therefore had ordered the attack under the mistaken impression Ichiki and his Detachment could win.
    It's hard to say. Given his attitude, which literally started a war, I would be inclined to believe he made a gross mistake in judgement. Yet, at the same time, hubris was running rampant in the Japanese leadership and fear of what happened at Midway was potentially a boiling reality. So, a quick win that could be built on the recent success at defeating a supposedly large force of American Warships for light losses.
    Either way, Ichiki and his men ran into the one thing they couldn't overcome. Well trained, led, and equipped Americans in a strongly fortified position, aware they were on the island and expecting trouble.

    Wonderful job as always boys! This one seemed a little lacking in the production value department though. Lately you've been adding dialog (voice actors) and other cool little subtle things like that. Also if I'm not mistaken you guys haven't posted in a while.... What's the deal yarn hub Why you got to keep us waiting for your great videos!?!?

      I thought the same thing at first. Look at 3:07 and you can see that the bullets come out of the wooden box.

    Well, there isn't much more to say...more realism, more immersion. Doing great as always, Yarnhub. Show em' what for, keep telling these riveting tales!
    By the way, I do have a question about the Raseiniai tank alley video. Was the mysterious soviet tank crew in a KV-1 tank, as I suspect you showed in the video, or was it a KV-2 tank [AKA Stalin's death fridge] ?

    It's really sad how countless stories of heroes got buried in the sands of time. Countless stories of bravery, sacrifice and heroism had been forgotten either because everyone who witnessed it never lived to tell the fail or simply forgotten because of political reasons. That or the people simply chose to forget them and celebrate other who they deem is more worthy of being celebrated. Sadly the second world War happened during the time when racism was still rampant so the stories of many horoes from what is considered by the west as inferior races were simply forgotten.
