Celebrating 7 Years in Oceania 🏝️🌴🌺
&& Happy Pacific Islander heritage month 🥰
What a journey it has been since the first few days as a tourist in Hawai’i, motorbiking Aotearoa, and traversing the many dots in the Pacific that these beautiful people call home.
From Palau, to Tuvalu, and American Samoa. Tapa, kalo, and connecting the dots of language, I’ve found my joy passion and love into the source of it all: it’s people.
Who for seven whole years have impacted me in the greatest way.
Learning from them.
Being amongst them.
Being one with them!
While I reflect on 7 years of voyaging, there is still a whole journey ahead across familiar places and places unknown. Of continuing to acknowledge the differences that make each is...

    There is a local militaria shop that is run by the son of USMC veteran who fought here; the owner has a pink sheet that gives a WIA report to his dad's parents, and its framed up in a nice display. His father was bayonetted by Japanese infantry and nearly had one of his legs blown off by friendly fire. All said, its remarkable to see this place in its lavish green vegetation, contrast to the unimaginable suffering of 80 years earlier.

    The Marine casually throwing the grenade into the bunker and getting his hat blown off by the concussion is a small example of the close, personal, brutal fighting on Bloody Nose Ridge. Sledge wrote that everyone became despondent as getting killed or receiving the million dollar wound were the only escapes from this tropical hell.

    Mahalo nui loa for making this video. Makes me cry and I’m not even Hawaiian. Gotta say tho that when my late Japanese mom was pregnant with me, a mixed hapa-haole baby, to be born soon in 1977, my haole dad left and his country didn’t help my mom, Japan discriminated non-Japanese blood back then, Hawai’i was the only place that took us in despite the fact that her soon-to-be born baby would have white blood that betrayed and destroyed their everything. That’s Hawai’i that I respect 100%

    I think that fuel dump/storage area is the building Leckie was running by when a mortar shell exploded next to him and took him out of the war. I just finished reading his book and his chapter about his time on the island was insane to read

    • @ericmailander3361
      @ericmailander3361 2 дня назад

      That area was actually in the area of C Company, 1st Marines. And it was not a big battle. In fact that blockhouse was already destroyed by ship fire before the invasion. Leckie was in 2/1 and hit on the airfield.

    Quick question, you said the Battle Peleliu began on September 15, 1944. That part is correct, but I was wondering why you stated it was the morning of D-Day when D-Day happened on June 6th. Just wanted to know if I was misunderstanding something?

    • @ericmailander3361
      @ericmailander3361 2 дня назад

      A few inaccuracies. The blockhouse he mentions was not a big battle as it was already destroyed prior to D-Day.

You are so unbelievably privileged. Major kudos to you. Thank you for this video.

When I was reading his book for the first time when I was 16 i had to put the book down and take some deep breathes. That quote has stuck with me my whole life and helps me be grateful for those who came before me and helped ensure I don't have to live through the horror of war. Thanks so much for this video man fr. Great job!
