Summary:

Though most people associate D-Day with the massive invasion of Normandy on June 6, 1944, few are aware that 'D-Day' is actually military code for any amphibious operation. Take a look at dozens of the more than one hundred D-Days waged in the Pacific. The ultimate guide to the epic campaign orchestrated by American forces in the Pacific, this two volume set includes seven documentary features.
