Dod_peleliu by cheese-sarnie

0832 September 15 1944. US 1st Marines' landings at "The Point"
under commander Chesty Puller.

Under heavy fire from enemy forces,
they must secure the beach before proceeding inland. When considering
the number of men involved, Peleliu had the highest casualty rate
of any battle in the Pacific War. Out of roughly 11000 Japanese
defenders over 10000 were killed with almost 1800 US troops killed
and over 8000 wounded. The invasion was supposed to be over in 4
days but took over 2 months, the island was never fully secured.

Allies:

Destroy the two 88 gun emplacements with TNT and secure the
command center, train station and main bunker.

Axis:

Hold the allied troops at all costs and prevent them from
getting inland.
