After battling across the island of Okinawa for over a month, Sledge and the rest of the 1st Marine Division are ordered to relieve an Army division that has been in combat against the most strongly defended Japanese position on the island. The primordial conditions and the moral dilemma posed by the presence of civilians put tremendous strain on the physical and psychological endurance of Sledge and the other Marines.

You must admit...the battles in The Pacific are better than in BoB...
This episode is so fucking brilliant. It's one of the most shocking things I've ever seen. And isn't even the real thing. I mean... it's an episode to never forget. And it made me so awfully sad.
One of the best episodes of the series imo. Very emotional.
