  • Pelileu: Death Trap Island (Part 1)
    Nov 28 2024
    27th November, 1944, Palau Islands. A 'God-Forsaken' island in the Pacific, Palau must be taken for the US strategy to reclaim the Philippines and push back the Japanese Empire. After 2 months of bloodthirsty fighting, The US forces claimed the island for its airfield, but the controversy of its strategic value versus the horrific cost in men remains to this day. Did the myopic, and partisan ambitions of a flawed top brass result in the shocking US casualty figures? Or was it the coral, caves, and suicidal sacrifice of the Japanese defenders? Join James Holland, Al Murray, and John McManus as they dive deep into the 'Emperor's Island', as well as discussing the big names and conflicting interests of the campaign - such as Geiger, Puller, and Rupertus.
