The Marines continue their fight against the Japanese, and we really get a good feel of how it is to be fighting an enemy who just keeps coming at you, while you're dealing with difficult terrain and limited resources.. My father and I are really enjoying this series so far!

By the way, I adjusted the background a little bit, as you can see.

What i really love about the Pacific that i found they did better than Band of Brothers was the silent moments of reflection. They really seem to get at the way these Men must have been feeling. The combat scenes are great but in my opinion my two favourite scenes from this episode are when Sledge’s Father is talking about the way World War 1 veterans seemed like they had had their souls torn out and of course the last scene. They are both done so well and with such emotional depth. Fantastic episode.

Great reaction, both Sonny and Major Dad. Leckie wrote that when the cook told them they were heroes back home, they couldn’t look at each other because they were embarrassed by the tears that filled their eyes. They thought they were expendable and no one cared. John Basilone was probably the most feted hero from the Pacific theater, like Audie Murphy from the European theater. He’s had postage stamps issued, streets named after him, his likeness in statues, and even annual parades in his home town, Raritan, New Jersey, to this day. There’s also an annual Basilone Bowl, a football game. A destroyer, USS John Basilone, will be commissioned soon, the second ship named in his honor. I’m not sure, but I think after Guadalcanal, the Japanese stopped banzai attacks. They lost an entire regiment there.

So we saw at the beginning of the battle how the Japanese Navy defeated the American Navy and drove them off leaving the Marines with next to nothing for supplies. Towards the end of the battle the roles were reversed and it was the Japanese who were cut off. Things were so bad for the Japanese that they referred to Guadalcanal as the Island of Death. Love all the Major's little tidbits.

On a lighter note the guy who plays Sledge was the little kid in the first Jurassic Park film.

One thing I love, but in a really sad way, is how good the show is about the hell on earth that is war, how one moment your in a tropical paridace and the next its a blood soaked battle field, also i know its still a ways off but i would highly recommend Generation Kill at some point its about the US invasion of iraq in 2003 from the point of view of a reporter that was with Marines from 1st recon battalion who were at the tip of the spear during the invasion

One thing to keep in mind about the Japanese naval bombardment of the Marines. During Band of Brothers, the Germans were using standard 88mm and 105mm field guns at Bastogne to hit the airborne dug into the Bois-Jac forest. As intense and horrifying as that was, the Japanese were using much larger naval guns to hit the Marines. The heavy cruisers were firing 203mm shells and the battleships Kirishima and Hiei were firing 356mm shells. So German shells weighed in roughly 10kg and 15kg while the Japanese shell weight was around 126kg and 625kg for the naval shells. An altogether different level of intensity.
