It was sad that a lot of people lost their lives including my Gilbertese relatives and family friends who were living peacefully in their home country.We were defenseless against the Japanese who thought they could win this war!
Read one square mile of hell gives you a good idea of what the marines went through. Thing to walk through neck deep water 700 yards to shore with the japanese furring at you every step of the way. Much respect to the marines that served there.
Your posting the color videos of the Pacific theater is commendable. Virtually impossible for me is visualizing naval conflict, so the video is essential.
Most of this is actual footage. Some is from "The Sands of Iwo Jima". Some of the actual is staged for photographers, like the mortars at around 4:05.
