The Massacre Of Guam From The Japanese Perspective: 18,377 Men Gone This WW2 documentary tells the Battle of Guam through the Japanese side of the line, from the occupation of the island to the doomed defense of 1944. As American Marines and soldiers closed in, Japanese commanders faced bombardment, collapsing lines, failed counterattacks, and the brutal reality that no rescue was coming. The story also follows the suffering of the Chamorro people, the fall of the Japanese garrison, and the haunting survival of Shōichi Yokoi, who remained hidden in Guam’s jungle for nearly 28 years. What do you think was the true turning point on Guam: the naval bombardment, the night counterattack, or the loss of Saipan?
