The Marshall Islands 1944: Operation Flintlock, the Capture of Kwajalein and Eniwetok by Gordon L. Rottman

2.0

The longer the title, the greater the risk of Osprey alphabet soup... in this case, two divisional action reports are mixed at a (s)pace of a paragraph per day. The regular reason to capture any Pacific island by costly amphibious assault - an airfield for the next "hop" - makes this one of those Pacific battles that you can easily capsule into the introduction for the next battle - and indeed, Rottman sandwiches the Marshalls between Tarawa & Saipan himself in his Osprey on the former.
