{"product_id":"bloody-saipan-june-1944-gary-schreckengost-9781530770700","title":"Bloody Saipan, June 1944","description":"The battle for Saipan and the Marianas Island chain in the Central Pacific was one of the toughest battles of World War II. Assaulted by three American divisions-two Marine and one Army-and supported one of the largest naval armadas ever assembled, Saipan was a strategic victory for the United States. Once it was secured by late-July 1944, massive new B-29 bombers were able to attack Japan from the island chain. This is the historically accurate but fictional story of one of the Marines who hit Red Beach in June 1944: Lance Corporal Henry Hennessey, a high school hockey player from Syracuse, New York. Read how and why Henry joined, what his training was like on Hawaii, who his buddies were in A Team, 2nd Squad, 3rd Platoon, Fox Company, 2nd Battalion, 6th Marines, and what combat was like on Saipan, 1944.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gary Schreckengost\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 153077070X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781530770700\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/25\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.44d","brand":"Gary Schreckengost","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45896813379839,"sku":"9781530770700","price":10.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_59911f7c-16ec-4b57-8f7a-74ac5f3db3be.jpg?v=1721372393","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bloody-saipan-june-1944-gary-schreckengost-9781530770700","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
