Overview:
The attack order for the 8th Marine Regiment remained the same as the previous day: assault the strongpoints to the east. The standoff on Red Beach 3 attracted a number of unassigned Marines. Shore Party 1st Lieutenant Alxander 'Sandy' Bonnyman, Jr. spent a full day hunkered down on the eastern edge of the complex, studying the layout and assembling a makeshift squad of engineers. He had 21 men in his 'Forlorn Hope' equipped with two fully-charged flamethrowers and plenty of explosives.Attacker: American (USMC) (8th Marines)
Defender: Japanese (3rd Special Base Force)
