"Betio Beachhead" is a semi-official account of the Battle for Tarawa—the first sea-borne assault on a defended atoll—which will endure as a monument of unsurpassed heroism.

A full account, documented and written by four combat correspondents in the Marine Corps who fought in the battle, this book details every step: from the day the plans were laid and the last fired shot was fired, to the raising of the Stars and Stripes over the shattered battlefield.
