| Zusammenfassung: | "On August 20, 1942, twelve Marine dive-bombers and nineteen Marine fighters landed at Guadalcanal. Their mission: defeat the Japanese navy and prevent it from sending more men and supplies to "Starvation Island," as Guadalcanal was nicknamed. The Japanese were turning the remote, jungle-covered mountain in the south Solomon Islands into an air base from which they could attack the supply lines between the U.S. and Australia. The night after the Marines landed and captured the partially completed airfield, the Imperial Navy launched a surprise night attack on the Allied fleet offshore, resulting in the worst defeat the U.S. Navy suffered in the 20th century, which prompted the abandonment of the Marines on Guadalcanal. The Marines dug in, and waited for help, as those thirty-one pilots and twelve gunners flew against the Japanese, shooting down eighty-three planes in less than two months, while the dive bombers, carried out over thirty attacks on the Japanese fleet. Fifty-Three Days on Starvation Island follows Major John L. Smith, a magnetic leader who became America's top fighter ace for the time; Captain Marian Carl, the Marine Corps' first ace, and one of the few survivors of his squadron at the Battle of Midway. He would be shot down and forced to make his way back to base through twenty-five miles of Japanese-held jungle. And Major Richard Mangrum, the lawyer-turned-dive-bomber commander whose inexperienced men wrought havoc on the Japanese Navy. New York Times bestselling author John R. Bruning depicts the desperate effort to stop the Japanese long enough for America to muster reinforcements and turn the tide at Guadalcanal. Not just the story of an incredible stand on a distant jungle island, Fifty-Three Days on Starvation Island also explores the consequences of victory to the men who secured it at a time when America had been at war for less than a year and its public had yet to fully understand what that meant. The home front they returned to after their jungle ordeal was a surreal montage of football games, nightclubs, fine dining with America's elites, and inside looks at dysfunctional defense industries more interested in fleecing the government than properly equipping the military. Bruning tells the story of how one battle reshaped the Marine Corps and propelled its veterans into the highest positions of power just in time to lead the service into a new war in Southeast Asia"-- |

Not just the story of an incredible stand on a distant jungle island, Fifty-Three Days on Starvation Island also explores the consequences of victory to the men who secured it at a time when America had been at war for less than a year and its public had yet to fully understand what that meant. The home front they returned to after their jungle ordeal was a surreal montage of football games, nightclubs, fine dining with America's elites, and inside looks at dysfunctional defense industries more interested in fleecing the government than properly equipping the military. Bruning tells the story of how one battle reshaped the Marine Corps and propelled its veterans into the highest positions of power just in time to lead the service into a new war in Southeast Asia"-- USA Navy (DE-588)14543-9 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte gnd rswk-swf Schlacht um Guadalcanal (DE-588)4223416-5 gnd rswk-swf Guadalcanal, Battle of, Solomon Islands, 1942-1943 United States / Marine Fighting Squadron 223 Carl, Marion E. / 1915-1998 Smith, John L. / (John Lucian) / 1914-1972 World War, 1939-1945 / Naval operations, American World War, 1939-1945 / Aerial operations, American World War, 1939-1945 / Campaigns / Solomon Islands United States / Marine Fighting Squadron 221 Fighter pilots / United States / Biography Bataille de Guadalcanal, Salomon, 1942-1943 Guerre mondiale, 1939-1945 / Opérations navales américaines Guerre mondiale, 1939-1945 / Campagnes et batailles / Salomon Pilotes de chasse / États-Unis / Biographies HISTORY / World United States / Marine Corps Solomon Islands / https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJvcYyJ7PmQvVvMk9hWqwC World War, 1939-1945 / Naval operations World War, 1939-1945 / Aerial operations World War, 1939-1945 / Campaigns Fighter pilots / Biography 1900-1999 History Informational works Documents d'information USA Navy (DE-588)14543-9 b Schlacht um Guadalcanal (DE-588)4223416-5 s Geschichte z DE-604 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, EPUB 978-0-316-50868-1 |
