Peleliu 1944: Horror In The Pacific Trailer

The men of Company K, 3rd Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment describe the ferocious battle for the Island of Peleliu, "an island on fire." In conditions that tested the sanity of each man, 9,000 Marines attacked 10,000 battle hardened Japanese soldiers dug into hundred of fortified and reinforced coral and limestone caves. Twenty-eight days of unrelenting battle with no quarter being given or taken. Brutal, harrowing, but heart-rending, the stories of these soldiers truly speak to the horror of war. This remarkable documentary features interviews with Eugene "Sledgehammer" Sledge (author of "With the Old Breed") , R. V. Bergin (author of "Islands of the Damned"), William Leyden, Jay de L'eau, and Roy Kelly. Sledge, Bergin Leyden, and de L'eau were characterized in the HBO series "The Pacific."
On September 20th, 2023 the long-awaited, much-anticipated series Masters of the Air premiered on AppleTV+.
