The Invasion of Saipan Part 2 of 3 with Jon Parshall-Episode 311

This week Seth and Bill are again joined by good pal Jon Parshall to discuss the evolving invasion of Saipan. After the Marines pushed off of the beachhead, the advance inland progressed nicely until the 27th Infantry Division ran into incredibly difficult terrain and vicious Japanese defense at Naftan Point and Death Valley. In the resulting mess of Death Valley, Marine General Holland Smith relieved Army General Ralph Smith, igniting a firestorm of controversy in what became known as Smith versus Smith. The team discusses the vicious fighting in the central portion of the island and the controversy surrounding Holland Smith's decision. Tune in and see what all the mess is about as the team takes its normal deep dive into what has been, thus far, the Pacific War's bloodiest campaign.
