Re: SIAPAN ISLAND ATTACK

Anyone looking for detailed info on the Saipan battle can do so through a book entitled: 27TH INFANTRY DIVISION in WWII by Edmund G. Love, p. 1949.This chronicles a specific infantry division throughout the entire WWII, but also covers the divisions that fought along side them - one battle being Saipan.This person apparently was a military reporter and interviewed many after the war.He names hundreds of individuals in this book - many KIA - and details their heroics.Be forewarned however that the book is about 700 pgs.I had to request it through interlibrary loan, but it was worth the wait.
