Tarawa Remembered by Gen. Shoup After 20 Years
Marine Gen. David M. Shoup recalls the Tarawa battle with most of the 40 yards through shellfire and coral, the lethal moments that left him scarred yet survived. He led assaults under fire and earned the Medal of Honor for his actions during the three day fight that cost 990 Marines and wounded 2,311 others. He highlights a blank in memory from the pivotal crossing and vows to honor fallen comrades through a scholarship fund for their children. The commandant retires December 31 after 37 years in the Marine Corps.
