This week Seth, Bill, and Jon tackle the liberation of Guam as part of our continuing coverage of the pivotal Operation FORAGER. Following the Saipan operation, the Marines of the 3rd Marine Division, 1st Provisional Marine Brigade, and the Army's exceptional 77th Infantry Division cast their eyes on the former American territory of Guam. Invaded and captured by the Japanese in December 1941, Guam and its American loyal inhabitants, were under the Japanese yoke for far too long. The largest land mass in the Marianas would provide a critical staging point for future operations in the Pacific. The once-forgotten American territory would explode in both personnel and importance following its liberation in August 1944.
**NOTE: I made the statement that the 77th was NYNG in this episode. I misspoke. The 27th ID was NYNG not the 77th. **
