How the Navy let down the Marines at Iwo Jima

Spread the love

My father fought in this horrible battle where 7,000 Marines were killed, and he blamed the Navy for much of the carnage.
.
This was not the first time in WWII that interservice rivalry, partly caused by the Marines’own contemptuous attitude toward the other branches (esp. the Army and the Navy) had fatal consequuences for the Marines themselves.

The egoic mind in one person brings out the egoic mind in others, causing suffering on both sides — and even death.

    OVERVIEW OF RUSSIAN STRIKES ON OCTOBER 31: UKRAINE PLUNGING INTO DARKNESS

    Ukraine continues plunging into darkness. Since the early morning of October 31, dozens of Russian missiles and drones have hit military and energy infrastructure facilities across the country.

    Today’s missile strikes on the energy system were called “catastrophic” at an emergency meeting of the Ukrainian government in Kiev. The power grid of Ukraine, although with the maximum voltage of generation and transformer substations, already failed to provide electricity throughout Ukraine, but today it almost collapsed. So far, more than forty key facilities of Ukraine’s power grids were hit, including the largest facilities like DneproGES, Yuzhno Dniester HPP, Kanevskaya and Kremenchug HPP.

  2. I get some funny looks from people when I tell them I support Putin. Lol. Then they agree that the West provoked the Russians by their lies not to expand NATO up to the Russians borders.
    .
    Our media are just paid liars. Save your money, folks . Go online it’s free.or visit John’s site for the truth.

    If you didnt visit the main media would your world fall apart? No. Well, that’s how important the bullshit media is. AVOID AVOID AVOID.
    .
    For provoking the Russians I hope a lot of mouthy people go hungry and cold this winter. You reap what you sow.
    .
    The global elites are trying to steal Russia’s wealth just like Jacob Dchiff and his greedy New York jews tried before, killing 10s of millions in Russia alone.
