Kwajalein Falls to 7th Division in Pacific Invasion
Marines describe the Kwajalein operation as the 7th Division pushes inland across Red Beaches, destroying pillboxes, taking prisoners, and inflicting heavy enemy losses. The island's airfield is captured with minimal American casualties, while destruction and oil fires light the night sky as veterans prepare for the next assault.
