Saipan pictures-war related (cont'd)

More Battle of Saipan pictures. The first two describe how the Japanese planned to rebuff the invasion and how it actually went down.



Suicide Cliff overlooking the Last Command Post. It must have been well protected from any American artillery.


Next, a hodgepodge of Japanese military equipment. Mostly anti-aircraft guns I suspect.





Side view of the last command post. I hope that large hole didn't suddenly appear during the battle-that would have been painful.
