In the last episode, we were exploring the northern landing beaches on the island of Guam where the 3rd Marine Division landed in July of 1944. In this episode, we're shifting down to the southern landing beaches to see some Japanese bunkers and the spot where Medal of Honor recipient Desmond Doss (who would be the subject of the movie "Hacksaw Ridge") saw combat for the first time.
