(3/5) Pacific Lost Evidence Guadalcanal Episode 3 World War II

World War II SUBSCRIBE TO EXCELLENT WORLD WAR II VIDEOS
Ninety miles long on a northwest-southeast axis and an average of twenty-five miles wide, Guadalcanal presented forbidding terrain of mountains and dormant volcanoes up to eight thousand feet high, steep ravines and deep streams, and a generally even coastline with no natural harbors. With the south shores protected by miles of coral reefs, only the north central coast presented suitable invasion beaches. There the invading Japanese forces had landed in July, and there the Americans would have to follow. Once ashore, invaders found many streams running north out of the mountains to inhibit east-west movement. A hot, humid climate supported malaria and dengue-carrying mosquitoes and posed continuous threat of fungal infection and various fevers to the unacclimated. The Melanesian population of the island was generally loyal to Westerners.
Prior to the American landing in early August, the Japanese had not tried to fortify all terrain features, but concentrated on the north plain area and prominent peaks. They had built an airfield at Lunga Point and many artillery positions in nearby hills. At 1,514 feet, Mount Austen stood as the most important objective to anyone trying to hold or take the north coast. By August General Hyakutake had a force of some 8,400 men, most in the 2d Division, to hold the island and build airfields. Japanese naval superiority in the theater assured him of sufficient troop inflow - the 38th Division would land later - to realize his plans for a two-division corps.
In its early stages, the Guadalcanal Campaign was primarily a Navy and Marine Corps effort. Directly subordinate to Admiral Nimitz, Admiral Ghormley commanded both Navy and Army units. On the Navy side of the joint command, Maj. Gen. Alexander A. Vandegrift (USMC) commanded the 1st Marine Division, the assault landing force. Army troops committed to Guadalcanal came under command of Maj. Gen. Millard F. Harmon, as Commanding General, South Pacific.
On the morning of 7 August 1942, the 1st Marine Division followed heavy naval preparatory fires and landed across the north beaches east of the Tenaru River. In a three-month struggle marked by moderate battlefield but high disease casualties and accompanied by sea battles that first interrupted and finally secured resupply lines, the marines took the airfield and established a beachhead roughly six miles wide and three miles deep.
On 13 October the 164th Infantry, the first Army unit on Guadalcanal, came ashore to reinforce the marines and took a 6,600-yard sector at the east end of the American perimeter. Commanded by Col. Bryant E. Moore, the 164th had come through the South Pacific ferry route in January to New Caledonia. There, the 164th joined the 182d Infantry and 132d Infantry Regiments, in addition to artillery, engineer, and other support units, to form a new division called the "Americal," a name derived from the words America and New Caledonia. Until the Americal commander, Maj. Gen. Alexander M. Patch, and other units of the division arrived, the 164th would fight with the marines. (U.S. Army History Online 1949)

Pokemon Gym Theme (anime) The long lost but epic Pokémon Gym theme as heard in the anime!! I was going for a voiceless version, though some have gotten through; not too distracting I hope. Its GD*MN difficult to find voiceless fragments with also some reasonable quality.... It still needs a bit of modifying, but I hope it doesnt take too long to upload a better and completer version (u know, that funny sounding middle part :) btw, i used 3 episodes; who can name them all?? oh, and some suggestions on where to find other (rather) voiceless fragments are very welcome.

{Cine-cool Reviews} Outtakes Reel! Have you ever wondered what it's like for us behind the scenes? No? Well, here you go, anyway. The best of the rest from the Batman Begins and Planet of Dinosaurs reviews. Bloopers, deleted jokes, and all-around absurdity. Fun fact: the first outtake video in the Reviewniverse was "Bargain Reviews Episode 1.5: Godzilla King of the Monsters," featuring Mitch Pulliam in newly-filmed inserts as reporter Steve Martin. Another fun fact: major jokes have been trimmed out of these videos since the beginning! In fact, "Laserdicks Reviews Episode 2: The Fugitive" was cut in half solely for pacing! All early LDR outtakes have been lost, sadly.
