<p>bz2010-- The battle they were showing last night that I believe you are referring to was on the Island of Peleliu. There is a great book called “With the Marines at Peleliu”. The book also touches on the point in the documentary which discussed whether it was even necessary to take that particular island. Regardless, it was a long bloody affair.</p>
<p>Jamzmom—yep, I hear ya! There is a great movie called “A Bridge Too Far” which portrays Market Garden. Its pretty long but a very good movie.</p>
