WORLD WAR 2 SHOOTOUT - GUADALCANAL - PART 2

[larserikgill]

Haha. All that Rivers stuff is just not true.

He was killed by a burs of MG fire to the chest from the east side of the Ilu River and

died instantly. His finger did not freeze on the trigger.

All heroic men but some of it did not happen.

[thegrimreaper541]

@larserikgill what are you talking bout it did happen i looked that guy up and it did happen when he got shot he died instantly and his finger was still on the trigger firing at the japanese soldiers. so shut up abouut stuff you cant prove

[larserikgill]

@thegrimreaper541 Of course it said so that place you looked it up. It is a classic

"Guadalcanal myth" But think about it. They said that he fired over 200 rounds after

he died. Al Schmidt was right there with him, why waste 200 rounds (i think also that

a belt of ammo is only about a 100 or 150 rounds anyway) if you could take control of the gun and do it many times more efficient yourselves? Also i know a guy that took

part in the Battle of the Tenaru.

[larserikgill]

The Johnny Rivers thing is NOT true!

He was hit by a full burst of Nambu MG fire, and he did NOT freeze his finker on the trigger!

[TheBasicStuff]

what is the name of the gun the seargent was holoding at 4.20?

[derpderpingtons]

@TheBasicStuff Captain Charles H. Brush, Jr. Company A of the 1st Marines.

[rainbowsixODST]

now that's what I call death from the grave. that marine my have died but he was going to make sure he took some Japs with him!

[bramanforever]

even wounded marines can kick the jap's butt the army probly couldn't do that at their best .

[asianwannabeamerican]

@bramanforever yeah, we can all agree the USMC is badass. but the Army in WW2 was, by no means, a bunch of pansies. ever wonder why they always get more Medals of Honor than the Marines? besides, it was the Army that took down Hitler. with all that said, I plan on becoming a Marine

[MontezumaUH60]

@asianwannabeamerican good on ya mate, the military needs more mutual respect

[bramanforever]

ohhra marine corps is the best. suck that japs

[WarJunkieAndExpert]

The Japs may have won Battle round one, but they did not win the war, and that counts.

[igotnoideawhattoput]

OMG the japanese were so dumb~~~ but it seems the Jap's lack of automatic weapon was clearly a disadvantage for them~~~

[TheAmericanPageant]

NO, their commanders and high ranking officers where the dumb ones, the soldiers only follow orders.

[zenniz1992]

They have a machine gun that is much accurate then the marine's machine gun but the drawback was that it's reloading system suck. Because japanese are raised to serve and die for their empire hence they prefer choosing Bonzai charges to prove them " worthly ".

[harshvgaus]

why didnt they use their grenades?

[DanteSitwell]

Too bad the Marines weren't formally equipped with Garands.

[FrapMocha]

if they were, the japs will be dead in no time.

[woohooworld45]

they were after the four after a couple of years

[TheAmericanPageant]

They should of had some field artillery with them or mortars.

[lithopoonwit]

i've heard the Reising sucked huge, most Marines threw it away. It was the moist or something it think.

[lithopoonwit]

Japanese like to use their sword's and bayonet's, like old samurais do.

[stona80]

Awesome!!! Love your uploads on WW2!!!

Keep it coming~~~

appreciate your work~

That sergeant/soldier dead with his finger frozen on the trigger.... they should've left him there and regroup or get reinforcements.... -_-'''

[TheAmericanPageant]

But the Sargent that had his finger frozen on the trigger was firing at a fix spot, and also there wasn't reinforcements other than the men defending the strip of land.

[worldwar2treasure]

It's a little World War 2 history.
