Episode 2 • Nov 17, 2005
Iwo Jima
A detailed look at the invasion of the island of Iwo Jima, a 36-day battle of attrition that left 6,000 Americans and 20,000 Japanese dead. The island was strategically vital due to its position midway between Japan and American air bases in the Marianas. Iwo Jima served as an emergency landing site for 2,200 aircraft by the end of the war.

Episode 5 • Dec 15, 2005

Leyte Gulf
A detailed look at the Battle of Leyte Gulf, the largest naval battle in world history. For the first time in the Pacific war, kamikaze suicide attacks were used against the Allies. After the battle, the Japanese surface fleet ceased to be an effective force for the rest of the war.
Episode 7 • Dec 22, 2005
Guam
A detailed look at the recapture of the heavily-defended island of Guam, the first American territory to fall to Japan early in World War II. Guam's airstrips were strategically important because the island lies only 1400 miles from the Japanese home islands.
Episode 8 • Dec 22, 2005
Okinawa
A detailed look at the invasion of Okinawa, the last great battle of World War II and the largest amphibious assault of the Pacific campaign. In the 82-day battle of attrition, more than 200,000 people died, including many Okinawan civilians.
