How Japan's Perfect Trap On Peleliu Turned Into Its Own Tomb In WWII's Pacific reveals how Colonel Kunio Nakagawa turned coral ridges, caves, and silence into one of the deadliest defensive systems of the Pacific War. From the first Marine landing on September 15, 1944, to the brutal struggle through Bloody Nose Ridge and the Umurbrogol, Peleliu became a battle of heat, fire, tunnels, and terrible attrition.
