It’s frustrating to think that an island so small that you could drive around it in 20 minutes was eventually occupied by a combined force of nearly 130, 000 men from both armies

The battles of Iwo Jima and Okinawa were bloody. Japanese troops fought and resisted the American forces, very bravely. US forces suffered heavy casulties because of the ferocity of the Japanese defenders.

In the battle of Iwo Jima(Feb-March 945), the Japanese forces suffered over 20, 000 KIA and managed to kill almost 7000 American Marines, Navy sailors, etc. And 19, 000 Americans were wounded. Japanese troops which survived kept fighting until January 1949. Almost 4 years even after the end war in August 1945.

In Okinawa(April-June 1945), the Japanese & Okinawans suffered over 100, 000+ dead(many civilians) and Americans suffered 13-20, 000+ dead. The Japanese resistance in Okinawa was fierce and the defence was a success. In many places, the Japanese troops were cut off and encircled, but still refused to surrender and fought to the last.

Americans suffered extremely heavy losses and casualties in battle for Okinawa. Even the top most US commander, General Buckner also died. He was killed in Japanese shellfire, making him the most senior US military officer to be killed in action during the war(1941-45).

Since you just did Iwo Jima, you should do something like Battle of Okinawa or Midway soon.

In the end there was banzai charge that reached the center on the island, and caused some 100 more casualties

Iwo, the Philippines, and Okinawa made it clear that invading the Home Island wasn’t going to be a possibility. The Japanese people proved to be extraordinarily gracious after the War. They are very impressive and what they have become is a success story for free government.

No source stated? Where would you even find information on daily Frontline movement and troop count?

[nolanfonseca]

War is hell no matter where it is but I would’ve much rather fought in Europe than the pacific. The Japanese were relentless.

[Speed]

This battle shows that the Japanese were willing to fight regardless of the disadvantage they found themselves in.
