Quizás, si han sido afortunados de experimentar esto, les haya ocurrido en algún momento de su infancia (o incluso después) de haber recibido un regalo que podría no ser la gran cosa, pero con el que igualmente se entusiasmaban y querían empezar a usarlo y llevaro a todos lados, al punto de que los demás les digan "bueno... ya está. Listo. Ya estuvo bien". ¡Y algo así es posible que nos haya pasado a nosotros! Después de nuestra primera incursión en hacer una tierlist en vivo para el último programa de la temporada anterior, quisimos seguir roband-- eeeeeh... experimentando con el formato. Y para eso elegimos al que casi es un miembro más del programa, alguien que siempre nombramos y tenemos en nuestros corazones, el austríaco más musculado y con acento más pesado que conocemos: el viejo y querido Arnold Schwarzenegger. Así que por eso nos dispusimos a hacer esta tierlist y así responder a la pregunta: ¿cuál es el más Arnold de todos los Arnolds? ▶ Encontranos en nuestras redes: IVOOX: https://bit.ly/3vKq8FE SPOTIFY: https://spoti.fi/3hJzh9g INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/heroes.radio TWITCH: https://www.twitch.tv/heroesenlaradio Cafecito: https://cafecito.app/heroesradio Apple Podcast: https://bit.ly/3VkP3fV Google Podcast: https://bit.ly/3vgwM8U

In 1738, a cooper named Benedict Arnold petitioned the Rhode Island General Assembly for a divorce from his wife Mary Ward Arnold. Benedict claimed that Mary had taken a lover and together they had attempted to murder him with poison. How did this story of love, divorce, and attempted murder unfold? What does it reveal about the larger world of colonial America and the experiences of colonial American men and women? Elaine Forman Crane, a Distinguished Professor of History at Fordham University, takes us through the Arnolds' story with details from her book, The Poison Plot: A Tale of Adultery and Murder in Colonial Newport.

Gleznotāja Arnolda Andersona tēvam pagājušā gadsimta deviņdesmitajos gados Rīgas Centrāltirgū bija valūtas maiņas punkts. Vairāk nekā divdesmit gadus vēlāk Arnolds Andersons savos darbos šķetina atmiņas par deviņdesmito gadu bērnību, kurā pieredzēja gan vīrus ādas jakās ar dolāru pilnām somām, gan tēva ciešās attiecības ar naudu, varu un reliģiju. Ilgus gadus dzīvojis Londonā un apliecinājis sevi starptautiskajā mākslas vidē, Arnolds Andersons sevi piesaka ar personālizstādi Latvijā, galerijā „Asni” veidojot neparastu kopdarbu ar smaržu mākslinieci Alīnu Grīnpauku. Jaunā galerija „Asni” iepretim Latvijas Nacionālajam mākslas muzejam konsekventi turpina iepazīstināt ar jauniem un interesantiem vārdiem Latvijas vizuālajā mākslā, un Arnolds Andersons nav izņēmums. Viņa vārds līdz šim bijis labāk pazīstams ārpus Latvijas, jo glezniecību viņš mācījās un pēc tam strādāja Londonā. Nu jau dažus gadus viņš atkal ir rīdzinieks, un personālizstādi „Adrenalīns” iedvesmojušas viņa bērnības atmiņas par dzīvi deviņdesmito gadu Rīgā, īpaši saistībā ar tēvu. Jau domājot par izstādes tapšanu, Arnoldam Andersonam bijis skaidrs, ka tajā klātesošai jābūt arī deviņdesmito gadu smaržai. Tieši smaržas atmiņa ir visspēcīgākā, tāpēc viņš uzrunāja modes ilustratori un parfimērijas mākslinieci Alīnu Grīnpauku radīt trīs aromātus, kas abiem radītu asociācijas ar deviņdesmito gadu bērnību. Abiem vienaudžiem tā izvērtās par ļoti interesantu pieredzi. Arnolda Andersona un Alīnas Grīnpaukas radītā izstāde „Adrenalīns” galerijā „Asni” Rīgā būs skatāma līdz 15.februārim.
Stāsta režisors Jānis Cimmermanis. Par leļļu filmu studiju šo to zināju diezgan sen. Dažas filmas arī bija redzētas. Pirmā tikšanās ar meistaru bija laikā, kad Leļļu teātris svinēja izrādes “Velniņi” jubileju: Atveras durvis, ienāk Arnolds Burovs, Arvīds Noriņš, Valentīns Jēkabsons un Gedimīns Kotello. Galanti kungi apsveic māksliniekus, jūtas kā sen gaidīti viesi. Vakara gaitā meistars Burovs uzaicina visus paviesoties leļļu studijā. Tā pirmo reizi skatījos leļļu kino uz lielā ekrāna. Bija daudz nesaprotama, neizskaidrojama, nezināma – kā to var dabūt gatavu? Tā arī viss beidzās – ar gūzmu neatbildētu jautājumu. Nākošā tikšanās reize notika aptuveni pēc septiņiem, astoņiem gadiem. Biju jau pabeidzis Sanktpēterburgas teātra un kino institūta leļļu teātra fakultāti, biju režisors Rīgas leļļu teātrī. Doma par Burova studiju kaut kur galvā perinājās. Zināju, ka tikt strādāt šajā elitārajā studijā tā vienkārši nevar, jo darbiniekus uzaicina un atlasa personīgi pats Arnolds Burovs. Par to var aizmirst un nedomāt, bet nē! Kādu dienu mājās atskanēja telefona zvans no kinostudijas. Mana kundze satraukta saka: “Burovs brauc šurp, grib ar tevi runāt!” Tikāmies Upesciema centrā, lija lietus, sēdējām uz pussabrukuša soliņa un sarunājāmies. Pareizāk sakot, runāja meistars, es klausījos. Viņš piedāvāja man pamēģināt strādāt pie viņa. Īsti nesapratu, vai tā ir īstenība – manā priekšā tiek pavērtas durvis uz leļļu kino! Gandrīz gadu pēc mēģinājumiem Leļļu teātrī braucu uz kinostudiju mācīties. Viss bija jāsāk no nulles. Atkal no sākuma. Meistaram laikam patika mana attieksme pret darbu, varbūt tas, ka arī es nāku no lellēm, vai arī tas, kā viņš teica: “Galva ir uz pleciem un rokas aug no pareizās vietas.” Meistars bija prasīgs, darbā bija jābūt maksimāli savāktam, precīzam, koncentrētam uzdevuma izpildē. Viņš necieta nevīžību un nolaidību. Atzinība nāca pēc nofilmētā materiāla noskatīšanās. Ja bija kļūdas, tad, gandrīz atvainodamies, meistars teica: “Vispār tā varētu būt, bet tomēr jāpārfilmē.” Meistars bija daudzpusīga, bet sevī noslēgta personība – to sapratu daudz vēlāk, vākdams materiālus filmai “Meistara slepenā dzīve”. Daudzveidīga, piedzīvojumu un pārdzīvojumu pilna, krāsaina, bet ne viegla dzīve. Tas izpaudās viņa attieksmē pret darbu un kolēģiem. Filmēšanas laikā arī viņš pats ievēroja klusumu. Ja bija kārtojamas kādas lietas – tās tika kārtotas klusināti, lai netraucētu svēto filmas radīšanas procesu. Bija arī citādi. Nodārd filmēšanas paviljona durvis, meistars atgriežas no redkolēģijas sēdes, kliedz: “Ko viņi zina, ko viņi saprot! Viņi mani māca, kurā rokā māksliniekam jātur pindzele!” Diena sabojāta. Otrā rītā viss pa vecam. Attiecībā pret kolēģiem Arnolds Burovs bija laipns, zolīds, galants pret sievietēm. Ak sievietes, sievietes! Vienmēr smaidi, skūpstītas rokas, komplimenti – brīnišķīgi! Reizēm meistars gribēja palikt studijā viens un vēlreiz pārdomāt paveikto un vēl darāmo. Savu filmu tēlus viņš uzrunāja par mīlulīšiem. Tā bija viņa pasaule. Bija arī atmiņas, ar kurām viņš nelabprāt dalījās. Citreiz, palikdams viens, ņēma rokās ģitāru un klusiņām spēlēja tikai sev. Dažreiz Buritis, smaidot un ar humora dzirksti, gremdējās bērnības, jaunības atmiņās. Stāstīja, kā bastoja skolu, slēpdamies klavieru kastē. Kā pēc iespējas biežāk izskrējis uz ielas, lai varētu sveicināt savus kaimiņus – Raini un Aspaziju. Viņu interesēja arī mūzika. Viņa vecākais brālis strādāja par viesmīli tolaik Rīgā smalkākajā lokālā “Al-hambra”, kurā viesojās Eiropā un pasaulē slaveni džeza mūziķi. Mūzika bija viena no viņa mīlestībām, – studijās konservatorijā viņš bija mācījies čella spēli. Protams, bija draudzība un tikšanās ar sabiedrībā populāriem cilvēkiem – Aleksandru Lembergu, Jāni Žīguru, Niklāvu Strunki, Albertu Terpilovski. Tas bija domubiedru klubiņš, kas tolaik radīja aizdomas un zināmu interesi dažādās valsts iestādēs. Par meistaru Burovu varētu uzrakstīt lielu, biezu grāmatu, grāmatu par unikālu cilvēku, mākslinieku, radošu personību, kurā būtu stāsti par viņa uzņemtajām ap 40 leļļu filmām: pašu pirmo “Ki-ke-ri-gū”,arī "Kozeti", "Bimini", Čārlijam Čaplinam veltīto triloģiju "Sapnis", "Princese un puma", "Pēdējā lapa", arī "Si-si-dra", "Tīģeris Ņau-ņau", "Papiņš" un vēl daudzām citām...
Paul Arnold's interest in farming started in his 20s as an experiment in his father's backyard. "In 1986 when I decided to farm, I farmed in [my dad's] backyard to see if I really liked it," said Paul in a 2013 farm tour. "I worked for another farmer for one summer. And then started looking for land and found the land that we're going to walk to. And that was in 1988. We bought it. It was just a cornfield and some hayland." Paul and his wife Sandy have been running Pleasant Valley Farm since the early 1990s. It is located near the village of Argyle, New York, about a one-hour drive north of the state capital, Albany. Since then, the Arnolds have mentored a number of others interested in farming and continue to farm themselves growing "a range of over 40 types of vegetables and fruits year-round," according to their website. In Episode 29 of Station to Station with Joe Pavia, Exploring Pleasant Valley Farm & Echo Creek Farm in New York State, the Arnolds and one of the people they mentored, Michael Palulis will share their agricultural journey.

Stāsta muzikologs Armands Šuriņš Austriešu komponista Arnolda Šēnberga (1874–1951) vārds plašākai sabiedrībai laikam gan visvairāk saistās ar divām lietām. Viena no tām ir ekspresionisma stils mūzikā, viens no spilgtākajiem 20.gs.modernisma strāvojumiem. Otra – dodekafonijas tehnika – Šēnberga patentēta komponēšanas metode, balstīta uz visu 12 dažāda nosaukuma skaņu vienlīdzību un vienādi biežu lietojumu gan skaņdarbā kopumā, gan katrā tā posmā, pilnībā atsakoties no tonalitātes (no grieķu valodas: dodeka – 12, phõnē – skaņa). Šēnbergs – novators, Šēnbergs – drosmīgs jaunu ceļu gājējs, Šēnbergs – laikmetīgās mūzikas celmlauzis... Šāds viengabalains, pat vienvirziena tēls itin viegli izveidojas mūsu apziņā. Bet vai šis priekšstats ir pilnīgs? Lūk, daži fakti pārdomām! Arnolds Šēnbergs, līdzās skaņumākslai apdāvināts un aktīvs arī vizuālajā mākslā, kalpoja abām mūzām. Vēsturē zināmi arī citi līdzīgi gadījumi, piemēram, viņa vienaudzis, lietuviešu skaņradis un gleznotājs Mikalojs Konstantīns Čurļonis (1875–1911). Tomēr Šēnberga gadījumā uzmanību saista hronoloģija – viņa intensīvākais gleznotāja darbības laiks (no 1914. līdz 1922. gadam) sakrīt ar klusēšanas periodu mūzikā, astoņu gadu laikā nesacerot praktiski neko. Tādējādi vizuālmāksla ne tik daudz harmoniski un organiski papildina mūziķa radošo būtību (kā Šēnberga kolēģiem), cik kompensē mūziku autoram, kurš nonācis radošā strupceļā, ko 20.gs.sākumā izveidojis brīvi atonālās harmonijas šķietamais haoss. Atrodot izeju – jaunu risinājumu skaņu organizēšanai (dodekafoniju) –, meistars ar skubu atgriežas mūzikā un glezniecība atkal paliek otrajā plānā. Modernista Šēnberga stila attīstība jaunībā sākas ar vēlīno romantismu. Nekāds brīnums, jo līdzīgi debitējuši virkne viņa vienaudžu: piemēram, Klods Debisī, Bēla Bartoks, Karoļs Šimanovskis, arī viens no izcilākajiem Šēnberga skolniekiem Albans Bergs (1885–1935). Taču Šēnberga gadījumā pretrunas izpaužas viņa vēlākajā attieksmē pret jaunības romantiskajiem darbiem. Dažkārt, pārsvarā publiskos izteikumos, autors nepavisam nenorobežojas no agrīnajiem opusiem, ko publika iemīļojusi (kuram gan neglaimo slava!). Tomēr citās, īpaši privātā sarakstē paustās domās jūtama sāpīga, pat skaudra nožēla, ka jaunie modernistiskie darbi negūst ne tuvu tik plašu ievērību kā agrīnie – poēma stīgām "Apskaidrotā nakts" vai kantāte "Gurres dziesmas". Cits aspekts – jūtu un prāta attiecības mākslā. Ekspresionisms kā stilistisks strāvojums izceļas ar paaugstinātu, bieži pat galēji saasinātu emocionalitāti. Turpretī Šēnberga lielākais jauninājums, dodekafonija ir izteikti intelektuāla metode, kas pieļauj pat mehānisku skaņdarbu konstruēšanu bez mazākās iedvesmas. Tādēļ ir labi saprotams meistara satraukums, ka netalantīgu un bezatbildīgu sekotāju rutīnas rezultātā dodekafonija var novest pie nevērtīgām tīrā prāta rotaļām un pie mūzikas krīzes, degradējot sabiedrības acīs pat visu moderno mākslu. Lepnums par savu atklājumu un bailes par tā sekām – jā, šāds salikums ironiskā kārtā izskatās patiesi ekspresionistiski! Bet te – arī nākamā pretruna. Šēnberga norādēs viņa skolniekiem (arī jau nobriedušiem māksliniekiem) bažas un pārmetumi par rutinētu dodekafonijas lietojumu adresēti arī diviem vistalantīgākajiem viņa lolojumiem – jau minētajam Bergam un Antonam Vēbernam (1883–1945). Kā gan gudrais pedagogs un vērīgais stila kvalitāšu pazinējs Šēnbergs varēja nenovērtēt šo divu censoņu izcilību un augsto morālo atbildību pret mākslas radīšanu, kā varēja neuzticēties viņiem? Turklāt Berga mūzika, atšķirībā no kolēģiem, nepavisam nešķiet avangardiski tendēta, bet saglabā jūtamu saikni ar tradīcijām, tostarp pat ar tonalitāti. Pretrunīga ir arī paša Šēnberga attieksme pret tonālo mūziku. Atsakoties no tonalitātes, komponists vienlaikus apzinās tās iedarbes spēku, tādēļ mūža otrajā pusē arvien biežāk mēdz pretstatīt abas metodes, tonālo un atonālo (tostarp dodekafono). It sevišķi – lielmēroga darbos, kur kontrasti vitāli nepieciešami, lai atsvaidzinātu dramaturģiju. Tomēr pat šādās situācijās vērtību skala izrādās krietni mainīga. Operā "Mozus un Ārons" (1930-32, nepabeigta) pozitīvais tēls, garīguma nesējs Mozus raksturots ar dodekafonu mūziku, bet negatīvais, materiālists Ārons – ar vecmodīgo tonalitāti: cik pašsaprotams solis no modernista puses! Taču desmit gadus vēlāk poēmā :Oda Napoleonam" (1941) vērojama pilnīgi pretēja aina: jaunā tehnika, šķietami progresīvā dodekafonija tagad raksturo nekrietno varas uzurpatoru Napoleonu Bonapartu, bet viņa pretmets, cēlais varonis hercogs Velingtons tēlots skaidrā Simažora tonalitātē. Varbūt Šēnbergu uz pretrunām virzīja pati dzīve? Liktenis? Radošajā darbā sacerot modernu mūziku, ilggadīgajā harmonijas pedagoga praksē viņš pasniedz absolūti klasiskas, tradīcijās sakņotas vērtības (starp citu, Šēnberga mācībgrāmatu "Harmonija" Pēterburgas konservatorijas uzdevumā īsi pirms Pirmā pasaules kara krieviski pārtulkojis latviešu mūzikas klasiķis profesors Jāzeps Vītols). Jaunībā uzsvērti cieši identificējot sevi ar ģermānisko kultūras garu, mūža otrajā pusē Šēnbergs ļoti sāpīgi pārdzīvo apstākļu spiesto emigrāciju no Eiropas un savu etnisko tautiešu ebreju holokausta traģēdiju (tā spēcīgi atspoguļota poēmā Izdzīvojušais liecinieks no Varšavas, 1946). Šēnbergs ir mainījis gan savu reliģisko pārliecību (kristietība un jūdaisms), gan pilsonību (Austroungārija-Austrija un ASV), gan pat uzvārda rakstību (vāciskā Schönberg ar umlautu un angliski internacionālā Schoenberg). Būdams personiski draudzīgs ar izteikti plašu sava laikmeta spožāko intelektuāļu loku un laikmetīgās mākslas piekritēju apbrīnots, meistars mūža nogalē nonāk skumdinošā konfliktā ar savu vienaudzi, vācu literatūras dižgaru Tomasu Mannu (1875–1955), kura romānā "Doktors Fausts" doktora Lēverkīna tēlā teju slimīgi uztver ļaunu parodiju par savu muzikālo darbību. Galu galā – var pretrunīgi apstrīdēt pat faktu par Šēnbergu kā dodekafonijas radītāju. Līdzīgu tehnoloģiju jau piecus gadus agrāk lietojis mazpazīstamais austrietis Jozefs Matiass Hauers (1883–1959), bet pat veselus 20 gadus agrāk(!) – tiesa gan, ļoti epizodiski – allaž neordinārais amerikānis Čārlzs Aivzs (1874–1954). Tiesa gan, viņi abi, atšķirībā no Šēnberga, nebija attapušies reģistrēt savu izgudrojumu patentu birojā... Vai būsim no visa teiktā tikpat samulsuši kā virkne amerikāņu studentu 40. gadu beigās? Viņi droši vien gaidīja no izdaudzinātā viesprofesora Šēnberga kaut kādas dodekafonijas brīnumreceptes, bet bija pārsteigti no cienījamā sirmgalvja dzirdēt: "Mani mīļie, ja jūs zinātu, cik gan daudz brīnišķīgas mūzikas patiesībā vēl var sacerēt tonalitātē C dur!"
I det här specialavsnittet träffar Johannes och Jonny Marcus Landgärds. Han blev först bonuspappa till Arnold och fick sen ett biologiskt barn. Marcus berättar om första mötet med Arnold, hur man ska axla rollen som bonuspappa och vilken relation har han till Arnolds biologiska pappa.
The worst thing imaginable happened to Bob Arnold and his wife Jeanne in 2002. They were getting ready for bed and a coroner calls. Their 23-year-old daughter Marcie was found dead in her apartment nearly 500 miles away. Marcie, a vibrant young woman who was just getting established in North Myrtle Beach, S.C., was talking with a friend on the phone when the conversation went silent. She had suffered QT prolongation, sudden death from cardiac arrest, a rare occurrence that afflicts people with arrythmia, or irregular heartbeat. It is a tragedy that no parent should have to endure. But rather than get angry or go into denial, Bob and Jeanne chose another route to confront their suffering. "I knew one thing that had to happen in order to do that ... is to really be honest about what's going on," Bob said. "Trying to think of all the ways to try to rationalize this or deal with this, I knew none of those were reality." Bob started journaling. In the first three years after Marcie's death, he wrote 1,300 pages to help him "sort through the depths of despair" he was feeling. Those reflections turned into a book authored by Bob and Jeanne called When the Circle is Broken: Our Journey Through Deep Sorrow and Surprising Joy in the Loss of Our Daughter. The suffering also led Bob to ministry. The Arnolds now have a 70-acre farm in Western Maryland named Marcie's Meadow, which serves the ministry. They help people who are facing illness, death, divorce, or family difficulties find the joyous hand of God in their sorrow. "God doesn't take away the pain, but the pain continually became a healing agent," he said. "It (keeps) shaping and reforming and reforming, and in the process, we meet this compassionate and caring God." Bob's spirituality is evident in this week's episode of Chiseled. He tells a profound story of sorrow and joy and shares a path to healing that we can all follow. Bob's ministry is available to anyone who needs a lift. He can be reached at his email or phone number, which he shares at the end of the episode. Meanwhile, you can check out his ministry at his website, meadow4.org.

Come along as we follow a bunch of muscled, sweaty men (not Magic Mikes, unfortunately) who are traveling through the jungle in search of saving some hostages. What they don't know is that they are being hunted by an invisible being. Spoiler alert: it's the mofo Predator! When the men start getting killed off one by one they resort to blowing everything up, destroying the local ecosystem - via blowing everything up, and continuing to shoot guns even when their arms are blown off. But all that fails because what they really needed was mud! ...Just some mud! We've got Arnolds! We've got gratuitous violence! We've got Microsoft Paint CGI!

Last time we spoke about the fall of Shaggy Ridge, some hardcore patrolling on New Britain and major planning for the invasion of the Marshalls. The Australians seized the Kankeiri saddle, the Prothero's, Crater Hill and countless other features until finally at last the Japanese had been dislodged from the area. Meanwhile over on New Britain, the Americans were expanding their perimeter and unleashing wave after wave of patrols, trying to figure out where the Japanese were concentrating. It was tireless work, without any good maps in a horribly difficult climate with menacing terrain. The commanders of the central, south and southwest pacific all met to finalize big plans, that would now involved the invasion of the Marshall islands. It seems Dougey boy MacArthur was delivered some setbacks for his grand advance to the Philippines, as the Central Pacific was stealing the drivers seat. This episode is Operation Flintlock: The Invasion of the Marshalls Welcome to the Pacific War Podcast Week by Week, I am your dutiful host Craig Watson. But, before we start I want to also remind you this podcast is only made possible through the efforts of Kings and Generals over at Youtube. Perhaps you want to learn more about world war two?

If you are still hungry for some more history related content, over on my channel, the Pacific War Channel you can find a few videos all the way from the Opium Wars of the 1800's until the end of the Pacific War in 1945. In spite of General Douglas MacArthur's attempted hijacking of the strategic control over the Pacific campaign, by trying to have the US Navy's Central Pacific campaign pretty much aborted, it did not pan out. MacArthur had made multiple arguments against their Central plans, stating Nimitz choice of route was “time consuming and expensive in our naval power and shipping” which was really a self-serving argument flying in the face of actual evidence. MacArthur pointed out all the problems faced during the invasion of Tarawa, such as the high casualty rates. The Marines had jumped 2500 miles from New Zealand to hit Tarawa at the cost of 4 days of fighting. Yet Australian soldiers and American GI's would take nearly a year and a half, through nearly continuously fighting to make the 300 mile journey from Port Moresby to Madang. Operation Cartwheel proved to be extremely laborious, time consuming and costly in terms of materials and men. But from MacArthur's point of view the lives lost were largely Australian and perhaps as some Historians might point out “were politically expendable to a person like MacArthur”. Kind of a hit point to make, that one came from Francis Pike's Hirohito's War, go after him not me folks. It was also self evident the supply lines of ships from the west coast of the US to Nimitz Pacific fleet and their Marines, some 5000 or so miles from San Diego to Kwajalein atoll, was shorter than the long route going from the US west coast to Australia then to New Guinea, a colossal 9108 mile trip. By mid 1943 the supply line to MacArthur was nearly double that of Nimitz in distance with increased dangers of IJN submarines prowling about, though as I have said numerous times, the IJN only really figured out the capability of merchant hitting in the late years of the war. Well in spite of all of that MacArthur gave Brigadier-General Frederick Osborn and MacArthurs trusty lackey Sutherland going to Washington to fight on his behalf against the Joint Chiefs of Staff, they elected to commit themselves to the Central Pacific thrust. It had been a strategic decision based on logistical and strategy…well logic? The 1943 Cairo conference ended just as Tarawa was captured, thus driving the nail in the coffin so to say. The next target on the way to the Marianas was thus the Marshall islands, way back in the old days they were property of the German empire, that Japan had stolen with ease. Ever since 1938, the Japanese banned any non Japanese ships from the region, thus US intelligence was pretty lax on them. MAGIC intercepts began to give clues as to how the Japanese deployed their troops on the Marshall islands however. This led the allied war planners to leave some “to wither on the vine” like Wotje. It was decided the main target would be Kwajalein. The 380 mile lagoon made it one of the largest in the world, quite beautiful also. Some like Rear Admiral Turner, questioned the risks of going straight into the heart of the Marshall islands, calling the move “too aggressive and dangerous and reckless!” But Nimitz and Spruance were adamant, well this was before Tarawa. The bitter lessons learnt on Tarawa prompted Spruance to determine that “Kwajalein would be struck with violent, overwhelming force and swiftly applied”. For the invasion of the Marshalls, codenamed Operation Flintlock, the first phase was to be the capture of Kwajalein, earmarked by General Corlett's 7th division against the southern group of islands in the atoll that included Kawjalein. General Schmidt's 4th marine division would capture Roi-Namur and the northern islands in the atoll. Furthermore prior to these attacks, Colonel Sheldon's Sundance Landing Force would hit Majuro Atoll. Because of the experiences gained during the invasion of the Gilberts, a far greater quantity and variety of amphibious equipment had been made available to the Central Pacific forces. Now the attack force commanders would not have to rely on the faulty communications systems of battleships to maintain proper radio liaison between ship and shore and ship and air. Two newly constructed headquarters ships, each equipped with the latest developments in radio and radar gear and unburdened by gunfire support duties, were provided for the operation. Several improvements were also made in the techniques of softening up the enemy defenses before the first troops touched shore. The US Navy changed their bombardment tactics based on the experience at Tarawa and now used armor piercing shells and fired from closer ranges. These all added would increase the quantity and accuracy of firepower to be delivered before the invasion. To provide a last-minute saturation of the beaches, two new, or rather modified, forms of older types of amphibious equipment were also introduced. The first of these was the amphibian tank LVT-A, which was just the standard amphibian tractor equipped with extra armor plating and mounting a 37-mm gun housed in a turret. The second was the LCI gunboat, an LCI converted into a gunboat by the addition of three 40-mm guns and banks of 4.5-inch rocket launchers. Admiral Turner's plan called for extensive pre-landing bombardment both from surface ships and from aircraft. Most of the Marshall's airfields had been successfully neutralized by Admiral Hoover's aircraft over the prior months. To complete preliminary operations, Admiral Mitschers Fast Carrier force launched a heavy strike on January 29 and 30th. On the 30th, eight of Mitschers battleships, accompanied by about a dozen destroyers, were to deliver a dawn bombardment against Kwajalein Island and Roi-Namur. The object was to destroy aircraft, coast defense guns, and personnel, and to render the airfields temporarily useless. At the same time, two advance units of cruisers and destroyers from Turner's task force were to bombard the airfields at Wotje and Maloelap. These dawn bombardments were to be followed by air strikes against each of the objectives. After the strikes were completed the surface ships would again take up the bombardment and maintain a steady fire until about noon. Then on the 31st, initial landings would begin against Carlson (Enubuj), lying northwest of Kwajalein Island; Ivan (Mellu) and Jacob (Ennuebing) Islands, lying southwest of Roi-Namur. For southern Kwajalein, three other small islands in addition to Carlson were to be captured during the preparatory phase of the operation. These were Carlos (Ennylabegan), Carter (Gea), and Cecil (Ninni) Islands, all lying north of Carlson. On some of these islands artillery could be emplaced for the main assault. On February 1st, battleships, cruisers and destroyers would conduct a monster bombardment in support of the main landings and air strikes would begin 45 minutes before the men hit the beaches. There would be a cease to the carnage 25 minutes before to allow the smaller islands to deploy their artillery to help support the main assault. With this tremendous bombardment by aircraft, surface ships, and artillery, all to be executed before the first troops hit the shore line, it was hoped that the bitter experience of Tarawa would not be repeated. For the attack on Kwajalein Island, Corlett decided to land on a narrow front on the beaches at the western extremity, as the reef and surf conditions were more favorable there. He had at his disposal 79 amphibian tanks and 95 amphibian tractors that would transport the first 4 waves to hit the southern beaches. The first with great secrecy would be a pre-dawn landing against Carter and Cecil islands, by one platoon of the 7th Cavalry Reconnaissance Troop. The reconnaissance troop was embarked on two high-speed transports (APD's), along with two platoons of Company B, 111th Infantry. After this the 17th regiment led by Col. Wayne C. Zimmerman would land on Carlos and Carlson islands. The 1st Battalion, 17th Infantry, would hit Carlos while the 2nd Battalion, 17th Infantry, hit Carlson. The 3rd Battalion, 17th Infantry was to be held in reserve, ready to go to the aid of either landing team. While the capture of Carlson Island was in progress, the division artillery, loaded for the most part on amphibious trucks, was to debark and proceed to a rendezvous area offshore. Upon a signal from the commander of the Carlson landing force, the guns were to be moved ashore and into position. This was all done to secure General Arnold's artillery, whom on the night of the D-day along the 145th field artillery battalions would deliver interdictory fire from Carlson on all the principal fortified areas of Kwajalein Island and place counter-battery fire on any enemy artillery that might be emplaced on Burton. They were also to fire general support missions for the infantry. Finally, the 184th on the left and 32nd Regiment on the right would land abreast and advance up the axis of the island. If things looked like they were going well enough and the reserve 17th regiment would not be necessary, they would instead capture the remaining islands of Beverly (South Gugegwe), Berlin (North Gugegwe), Benson, and Bennett (Bigej) Islands in the eastern chain. There was a hell of a lot of fire power they would face as well. On Kwajalein, 4 12.7-cm, dual-purpose twin-mount guns were divided into batteries of 2, one located at each end of the island. Each battery was protected by 7.7-mm. and 13-mm. machine guns along the nearby beaches. Near each gun were 2 150-cm. searchlights. In addition, the northern end of the island was guarded by a twin-mount dual-purpose 13-mm machine gun on the lagoon shore. Several 7.7-mm. machine guns were in position on the western end and other heavy machine guns were scattered about the center of the island, some mounted on wooden sleds for easy movement to critical points. On the ocean shore were 6 8-cm. dual-purpose guns, divided into 2 batteries of 3 guns each. One battery was east of the tank ditch and the other was opposite the center of the airfield. The first had a 360-degree traverse and could fire either to seaward or landward. The other formed the nucleus of a strongpoint composed of a semicircle of rifle pits facing the beach supported by one heavy and one 13-mm. machine gun, and also included an observation tower, a range finder, and a 110-cm. searchlight. 2 other 8-cm. guns were in position on the lagoon shore, and the blockhouse on the main pier (Nob Pier), which jutted out into the lagoon near the northern tip of the island, had a 13-mm. dual-purpose gun on its roof and firing ports on the ground floor allowing machine guns to fire in all directions. For the attack on Roi-Namur, Schmidt's 1st phase was to capture the 5 islets near Roi-Namur. The Ivan Landing Group was commanded by Brig. General James L. Underhill, consisting of the 25th Marines under Col. Samuel C. Cumming; the 14th Marines Artillery and Company D of the 4th Tank Battalion. They would seize Jacon and Ivan islands to allow the 3rd and 4th Battalions of the 14th Marine Regiment artillery to deploy. Then they would hit Albert, Allen and Abraham islands where the 1st and 2nd Battalions of the 14th Marine Regiment artillery would deploy. For the main landings Schmidt chose to perform a orthodox amphibious maneuver, simply landing two regiments abreast on a broad front over the lagoon shore. The 23rd marines would hit Roi's red beach 2 and 3 and the 24th marines would hit Namur's Green beaches 1 and 2. The 3rd and final phase would see the capture of the remaining islands in the northern Kwajaleins. Now that was all for the Americans, but what about the defenders? Admiral Akiyama had recently been reinforced with a number of IJA units such as the 3rd South Sea Garrison from Wake; the 1st South Seas detachment from Mille and Jaluit and the 1st Amphibious mobile brigade from Eniwetok. The reinforcements were deployed mostly on the periphery, as Kwajalien, Jaluit, Maloelap and Wotje had sizable naval garrisons already. The hub of the Japanese military in the Marshalls was at Kwajalein and its main air base at Roi. If you pull out a map, which I do hope many of you do during this entire podcast series haha, especially for Burma it gets really confusing, trust me I know your pain. You can see Kwajalein lies far to the west, with Jaluit, Mille, Maloelap and Wotje kind of acting as buffers. If you were a Japanese commander you would most likely assume any invasion attempt would hit outer islands first and leave Kwajalein as the last one. A quote from one commander, Chikataka Nakajima makes this point "There was divided opinion as to whether you would land at Jaluit or Mille. Some thought you would land on Wotje but there were few who thought you would go right to the heart of the Marshalls and take Kwajalein.” The three most heavily defended islands were Roi-Namur, Kwajalein and Burton in that order of strength. The defenses of Roi-Namur were organized around a series of seven strong points, 4 on Roi and 3 on Namur, all on the ocean side. Starting from the southwest tip of Roi, the first was located along the southern shore of the west coast. The second and third were to the south and north of the northwest taxi circle. The fourth was on both sides of the wire and stone barriers next to the northeast taxi circle. The fifth, sixth, and seventh were on the northwest, north, and east tips of Namur, respectively. From the lagoon side the approaches were covered mostly by nothing heavier than 7.7-mm. machine guns. Wire entanglements were found at two points—on the beach around the northeast taxi circle on Roi, and on the narrow bit of land connecting Roi with Namur. The beach around the northeast taxi circle also boasted a tank obstacle in the form of large rocks jutting out of a rock wall. Anti-tank ditches had been dug throughout the two islands. On Kwajalein, there was a concrete sea wall along most of the ocean shore and around the northern and western ends of the island. The section at the northern end had posts set into it, probably to act as a tank barricade. East of the area cleared for the airfield was a tank ditch extending halfway across the island, and three smaller tank ditches ran between the ocean shore and the road in the vicinity of the airfield. The lagoon shore was protected by a two-strand barbed-wire fence at the water's edge. The large tank ditch was supported by trenches, rifle pits, and machine guns. At this point in the war, the Japanese tactical doctrine still stressed beach-line defense that would hinder a proper defense in depth. The Japanese doctrine to fortify beaches would gradually change as a result of the Gilbert-Marshall campaign. IJA General HQ research groups abandoned beach defenses for internal defenses to thwart naval and aerial bombardments, but also to favor concealed positions to thwart flamethrower and grenade attacks. Actually to side track just a bit, there is a book I rather like “The Battle for Okinawa” by Colonel Hiromichi Yahara. If you are interested in how some of the Japanese commanders decided to change to defense in depth, Colonel Yahara was a good case study and the book is interesting. Akiyama had roughly 5000 men on Kwajalein. 930 of these were IJA units, the 1st Company, 3rd Mobile Battalion, plus 2nd and 4th Companies of the 2nd Mobile Battalion of the 1st Amphibious Mobile Brigade. The IJA forces were led by Colonel Asu Tarokichi, commander of the 2nd Mobile Battalion. There also was 250 SNLF of the Yokosuka 4th; 1150 naval troops from the 61st Guard Unit and Akiyama's headquarters. The rest were not considered combat effective, mostly comprising laborers and logistical units. Most of these units were at Kwajalein itself, with some 345 troops and over 2000 air personnel of the 24th Air Flotilla at Roi-Namur. Three lookout stations were also established on Bennett, Carter and Carlos Islands while an air unit of the 952nd and 160 men defended Burton. By January 20th, all the preparations were complete in the Hawaiian islands for the grand invasion of the Marshalls. 2 days later, the task forces departed. At dawn on the 29th, the 4 task groups of Task Force 58 and the Neutralization Group arrived to their first assembly positions Aircraft carriers Enterprise, Yorktown, and Belleau Wood successfully neutralized Taroa while while Essex, Intrepid, and Cabot bombed and strafed Roi-Namur. Aircraft from Essex, Intrepid, and Cabot bucked northeasterly winds to bomb and strafe once more the important airfield at that base. Ninety-two enemy planes were based on Roi airfield when the attack developed. Command of the air was seized by American planes at the outset and after 8am, no enemy planes were seen airborne over Roi-Namur. Numerous hits were made on runways, hangars, fuel dumps, and gun positions. Additionally, carriers Saratoga, Princeton, and Langley sent multiple strikes against Wotje, managing to neutralize its airfield. Finally Admiral Sherman's carriers Cowpens, Monterey, and Bunker Hill launched strikes against Kwajalein. Her airfield and buildings were bombed on the first strike, then she was subjected to strafing and bombing. During the evening Admiral Sherman's group moved northwestward toward Eniwetok to be in position to launch an attack at dawn of D minus 1. It was not just the navy that smashed the Marshalls, the Army also got a taste. At Kwajalein one flight of seven B-24s dropped fifteen tons of bombs on Roi-Namur and three more tons on Kwajalein Island during the morning and early afternoon. As the carrier planes retired at dusk another seven heavy bombers arrived for a night attack, dropping twenty tons of bombs on Kwajalein Island. At Wotje, flying through heavy overcast, one flight of three B-24s dropped seven tons of bombs, causing fires and damaging the runways. A few hours later a flight of nine B-25s dropped three tons of bombs on the island in a low-level attack and strafed and sank a small cargo vessel in the lagoon. During this late attack carrier planes from the task force mistakenly intercepted the B-25s and shot down two before it was realized they were American planes. Maloelap, Jaluit, and Mille also received land-based attacks during the day. At Taroa, two and a half tons of bombs were dropped by B-25s, which then joined carrier planes in strafing the island. At Jaluit, attack bombers and fighters dropped seven tons of bombs and afterwards strafed the island. Mille was covered all day by twenty fighters, flying in flights of four. Planes that had been scheduled to strike these targets but that were unable to get through because of weather or mechanical difficulty flew over Mille on the way back to American bases in the Gilberts and dropped their bomb loads on the islands of that atoll.The Neutralization group shelled Wotje and Maloelap, leaving the last operational airfield on Eniwetok. Sherman's fighters and bombers hit the atoll during the morning of the 30th, destroying nearly all its buildings and runways, though a few aircraft managed to escape. The rest of the day would see more carrier strikes and surface bombardments against the Marshalls' atolls while the landing forces made their final approach towards Kwajalein. Meanwhile, Admiral Hill's attack group detached from the main task force, heading for Majuro Atoll. At 11pm 1st Lt. Harvey C. Weeks led a recon platoon on rubber boats to Calalin island, becoming the first Americans to land on any territory the Japanese had possessed prior to WW2. The rest of the recon company led by Captain James Jones landed on Dalap, Uliga and Darrit Islands. Finally, Majuro Island itself. They would find the Japanese had abandoned the atoll perhaps over a year earlier. At the same time Sheldon's landing force occupied Darrit and Dalop without any opposition and the 1st defense battalion soon arrived to take up garrison duties. To the northwest, the Destroyer transports Overton carrying Troop A and Manley carrying Troop B raced past Turners task force to hit Carter and Cecil islands. Troop B successfully landed on Carter at 6:20am, rapidly securing the island after killing her 20 defenders. Troop A accidently landed on Chauncey Islet at 5:45am and upon realizing they had landed on the wrong island, they left a detachment of 61 infantrymen and then re-embarked at 9:29am. Finally, Troop A landed on Cecil at 12:35pm, finding zero opposition there. On Chauncey, however, the Americans discovered a force of over 100 Japanese hidden in the islet's center. Half of the enemy force was killed but the Americans would eventually have to withdraw after losing two men. The desperate Japanese would continue to resist until eventually being annihilated a few days later. With the lagoon's entrance secured, Colonel Zimmerman transferred his two assault battalions to amphibious tractors and sent them towards Carlos and Carlson Islands. While Kwajalein, Burton and everly islands were under heavy bombardment, the 1st battalion, 17th regiment landed on Carlos unopposed at 9:10am. From there they quickly attacked the 25 man garrison. To their south, the 2nd battalion landed on the northeastern end of Carlson at 9:12am under some heavy artillery fire coming out of Kwajalein that was quickly suppressed by air and naval bombardment. The men expected fierce resistance, but the Japanese fled, leaving 21 Koreans to be taken prisoner. Honestly pretty good outcome for those poor Koreans. Then General Arnold landed his 5 artillery battalions who got their guns ready by nightfall. Further north, Brigadier Generals James Underhill began operations against Ivan and Jacob islands to secure even more artillery positions. After the preparatory bombardment the marines got aboard their amtracs with a lot of difficulty. Before the operation, landing team commanders had estimated that their debarkation interval would be about sixty minutes, but this did not pan out. Once the troops were loaded in their assigned landing craft they had to make their way through choppy seas to the LST area for transfer to amphibian tractors. At this juncture all semblance of control broke down. Landing craft were about two hours late in reaching the LST area. Choppy seas and a headwind were partly responsible for the delays. Boat control officers left the tractors in frantic search for the landing craft and failed to return in time to lead the LVTs to the line of departure. Tractors were damaged or swamped while milling around their mother LSTs waiting for the troops to show up. Radios in LVTs were drowned out. One LST weighed anchor and shifted position before completing the disembarkation of all its tractors. The elevator on another broke down so that those LVTs loaded on the topside deck could not be disembarked on time. In short, almost every conceivable mishap occurred to delay and foul up what, under even the best of circumstances, was a complicated maneuver. Despite the issues, by 9:17 the amtracs were surging forward while LCI gunboats fired rocket barrages. B Company of the 25th marines hit Jacobs at 9:52, easily overrunning the island within 15 minutes. Ivan island had a much rougher surf alongside bad reef conditions that slowed down the amtracs. Company D, 4th light tank battalion managed to land at 9:55am, with Company C of the 25th marines landing on the opposite side of the shore at 10:15am followed by Company A. They linked up and began advancing inland, rapidly destroying a token defense force and securing the entire island by 11:45. During the early afternoon, the 3rd battalion, 14th marines landed at Jacob Island aboard LVT's, while the 4th battalion landed on Ivan aboard LCMs. At this point the lagoon entrance was secured, so the 2nd and 3rd battalions, 25th marines re-embarked to land on Albert and Allen. Rough seas delayed them, but the marines were once again on the move. LCI gunboats performed rocket barrages as the 3rd battalion landed on Albert at 3:12, while the 2nd battalion hit Allen 3 minutes later. Both islets were quickly cleared, while G Company landed on the unoccupied Andrew island. The 3rd battalion then assaulted Abraham island at 6:24, securing it by 7:15. With that, the Americans had secured a chain surrounding Roi-Namur and the first phase of the operation was done. Now the Americans would perform the main landings. Late during the night, Arnolds artillery and Turner's warships bombarded Kwajalein and Burton while 3 destroyers kept up a barrage upon Roi-Namur. Under the cover of darkness, frogmen of Underwater Demolition Team 1 scouted Roi-Namur and UDT 2 scouted Kwajalein's beaches. These men made sure there were no obstacles or mines in the way of their landing objectives. This was the first use of UDT's during the Pacific War. Early on February 1st Kwajalein was hit with an unprecedented bombardment. During one period two shells per second were hitting specific targets or areas in the path of the assault troops. The 14-inch naval shells of the battleships were most effective in piercing and destroying reinforced concrete structures. From the cruisers and destroyers, 8-inch and 5-inch shells ploughed into bunkers and tore up the thick growth of pandanus and palm trees. All together that day, nearly 7,000 14-inch, 8-inch, and 5-inch shells were fired by supporting naval vessels at Kwajalein Island alone, and the bulk of these were expended against the main beaches before the landing. The field artillery on Carlson also joined in the preparatory fire. Its total ammunition expenditure against Kwajalein was about 29,000 rounds. The results of all this expenditure of explosives were devastating. The damage was so intensive that it is impossible to determine the relative effectiveness of the three types of bombardment. The area inland of Red Beaches was reduced almost completely to rubble. Concrete emplacements were shattered, coconut trees smashed and flattened, the ground pock-marked with large craters, coral ripped to splinters. From the carriers Enterprise, Yorktown, Belleau Wood, Manila Bay, Corregidor, and Coral Sea eighteen dive bombers and fifteen torpedo bombers struck the western part of Kwajalein Island while as many fighters strafed the area with machine guns and rockets. All together ninety-six sorties were flown from the carriers in support of the troop landing on Kwajalein Island. As one observer reported, "The entire island looked as if it had been picked up to 20,000 feet and then dropped.” After 36000 rounds of naval gunfire and artillery, along with sizable air attacks, pummeled the island, LCI gunboats were on the move, tossing rockets into the mix. At 9am, Turner unleashing his landing force. Colonel Curtis O'Sullivans 184th regiment headed towards Beach Red 1, while Colonel Marc Logie's 32nd regiment hit Beach Red 2. Each beach was covered by a strongpoint, though these were mostly obliterated, with only a few pillboxes surviving. Both regiments landed at 9:30am, finding weak opposition, allowing their artillery support to start smashing 200 yards ahead of their positions. The americans were met with light mortars and automatic fire from some surviving pillboxes, but many were able to take shelter behind the wrecked ruins of a seawall. Meanwhile as more Amtracs pulled up they were hampered by wreckage and debris, causing a congestion. The reefs also hindered where they could approach, but by 11:22 the first four waves of both battalions were ashore, all with 15 minutes. They then began to advance inland against light resistance. Logie's 1st battalion managed to reach the western edge of the west area by 11:30. Meanwhile O'Sullivan's 3rd Battalion came face to face with a network of several pillboxes still containing live Japanese in spite of the heavy preliminary bombardment. These were silenced in short order in a series of almost simultaneous actions in which many varieties of weapons were used. Two infantrymen of Company K, Pvt. Parvee Rasberry and Pfc. Paul Roper had landed near the left of Red Beach 1 and had run about 25 yards inland when they came under fire from one of the pillboxes in the area. Quickly taking shelter in a shell hole, they started lobbing grenades at the enemy position about fifteen yards ahead. The Japanese merely threw the grenades back and the volley kept up until a flame thrower was brought forward. That, too, proved ineffective; the flames only hit the box and bounced back. Finally, Private Rasberry got out of his foxhole, crawled to within about five yards of the pillbox and threw in a white phosphorus smoke grenade. This flushed several Japanese from their cover into open positions where they could be taken under rifle fire. Those who weren't hit ran back to the pillbox. Rasberry threw white phosphorous grenades until he had none left, by which time about eight of the enemy had been killed. At this juncture, T. Sgt. Graydon Kickul of Company L was able to crawl up to the pillbox and on top of it. He emptied his M1 rifle into it, killing the remainder of the Japanese inside. To make doubly certain that the job was done, an amphibian tank was then brought forward to fire both its flame thrower and its 37-mm. gun into the aperture. Meanwhile Logie's 1st battalion got within 250 yards of Wilma road by 12:20. An hour later they fell upon a network of pillboxes. To the north O'Sullivan's 3rd battalion ran into tough resistance again, but managed to link up with Logie's men at Wilma Road by 2:50pm. Behind the battalions were follow up battalions who mopped up the area and the reserves secured the beachheads. Logie and O'Sullivans men then fought their way to Kwajaleins airfield. Lucky for them the Japanese had not established a defensive line across the width of the island, instead the bulk of them retired eastward, for their commander Admiral Akiyama had run into an early tragedy. Akiyama had left his bunker to observe the front line and was killed by an artillery shell. At 3:25, the 1st battalion was relieved by the 2nd battalion who began attack against the strongpoint at Canary Some of these positions, which extended along each side of Wallace Road, were defended by Japanese who ducked and crawled through rubble heaps and bunkers in such a way that Lt. John L. Young, commanding Company E, became convinced that they were using connecting tunnels. For an hour the fighting persisted, but not more than ten enemy dead could be counted above ground. Company E continued through a litter of small works, moving so slowly that it was necessary to commit Company F, which undertook a flanking movement at the left. The maneuver was intended to cut the strong point off, but the company promptly ran into fire that slowed its advance to about fifty yards in thirty minutes. It then became clear that the whole movement had been stopped. The attack was consequently broken off at 1800 and defensive positions were organized for the night. To the north, O'Sullivan's 3rd Battalion ran into large underground shelters and defenses. Their advance was temporarily blocked by a fuel dump ignited by artillery fire, but they eventually pushed on another 500 yards before halting at 18:00 for the night. Meanwhile Logie's 2nd battalion broke off their attack halfway up the length of an unfinished runway and dug in for the night. By the end of February 1st, approximately 450 of the dead Japanese were counted in the zone of the 184th, and this regiment also was responsible for the capture of ten of the eleven prisoners taken. A large share of the enemy casualties was attributed to the heavy bombardment from ships and aircraft and from artillery based on Carlson. Estimates made by assault troops and by others, including doctors following the assault, indicated that the preparatory bombardment caused from 50 to 75 percent of all Japanese casualties on Kwajalein Island. It truly was a colossal bombardment. The Americans suffered 21 deaths and 87 wounded. Over on Roi-Namur, Admiral Conolly's LSTs entered the lagoon at first light to provide the amtracs an easier ride. Naval ships, artillery and aircraft began smashing the island. The marines saw some delays, but Colonel Colonel Louis Jones' 23rd Marines began their run to Roi at 11:50. Covering them, amphibian tanks sought hull defilade positions and concentrated their 37mm fire on the Wendy Point blockhouse, which could deliver flanking fire on the assault waves. The 1st and 2nd Battalions hit the beaches at 11:57 landed and immediately began to push 300 yards inland. Meanwhile Colonel Franklin Hart's 24th Marines bound for Namur were assigned the tractors of the 10th Amphibian Tractor Battalion that had participated in the preceding day's actions. The troubles that had beset the 10th Amphibian Tractor Battalion on D-Day were titanic. They had been launched too far from the line of departure in the first place. They had to buck adverse winds and unexpectedly choppy seas. Radio failures had tremendously complicated the problem of control, causing still further delay and much unnecessary travel through the water. All of this spelled excessive fuel consumption and many of the tractors ran out of gas before the day was over. For an LVT to run out of fuel in a choppy sea was usually disastrous. This model, the LVT-2, shipped water easily and its bilge pumps could not be manually operated. Thus, when the gasoline supply was gone the vehicle could not be pumped out and usually sank. In addition, many of the tractors of the 10th Battalion had not been released from their duties on D-Day until after dark, were unable to get back to their mother LSTs for refueling, and had spent the night on various outlying islands. Thus, as the hour for descending on Namur approached, the 24th Marines could muster only 62 of the 110 tractors that had been assigned to them and a hurried call was sent out for LCVPs to make up the difference. After some scrambling, the 2nd and 3rd battalions were reorganized and on their way to Namur. Hart's 2nd battalion hit Beach Green 2 at 11:55. They faced anti-tank ditches across the narrow beach, causing a large congestion. Hart's 3rd battalion made it to Green 1 at 12 and his K and I companies immediately advanced north. Meanwhile Jone's battalions secured Wendy Point facing no opposition. Encourage by the lack of resistance, the Marines began a rather disordered dash across the island. The stormed across the runway without orders and all guns blazing. Tanks and infantry hastily charged in the disorder, successfully driving the surviving and terrified Japanese north. Jones managed to gain control over his units and brought them back to assembly points to coordinate further attacks. The “re-assault” of Roi kicked off at 3:30 against a dazed enemy still trying to recover from the first attack. The 2nd battalion pushed north towards Estelle point while the 3rd battalion hit Nancy point. Enemy resistance was being rapidly annihilated, Estelle point was secure by 5pm, while Nancy Point would be taken by 6pm. After Nancy point was secured, Jones declared Roi secure. Meanwhile Harts F company unknowingly breached a torpedo warhead bunker and began throwing satchel charges into the hole. The structure was obliterated by a massive explosion that would detonate two other ammunition bunkers nearby. Blocks of concrete, palm trees, wood, torpedo warheads, and other debris rained down over the island, covering most of the island with smoke and dust. 20 Marines were killed and 100 were wounded. The enormous explosion disrupted the 2nd battalions assault, causing a delay. Hart's 3rd battalion enjoyed more success, but heavier resistance as the Japanese defenders took advantage of all the rubble and dense brush tossed around to hide behind. By 7:30pm, Hart ordered his men to dig in and during the night the Japanese began their classic infiltration tactics. The green troops amongst the men began indiscriminately firing throughout the night. The next morning, light tanks broke a Japanese counter attack, as the Marines advanced 50 yards. Hart then launched his main attack at 9am,with the 3rd Battalion rapidly securing Nora Point by 11:00am. Tank support for the 2nd Battalion arrived an hour late, but they still managed to push towards Natalie Point by 12:15, where the two battalions linked up. Mop up operations continued in the rear, but the island was declared secure at 2:18. For their first operation, Schmidt's 4th Marine Division suffered 206 killed, 617 wounded and 181 missing. 3472 Japanese would be found dead, with 51 captured and 40 Korean laborers surrendered. To the south, after aerial, artillery and naval bombardment, Corlett launched a tank supported attack at 7:15am. O'Sullivans 2nd battalion advanced north against weak resistance while Logie's 2nd Battalion continued to fight through the Canary strongpoint. Advancing through destroyed pillboxes with tanks at the forefront, O'Sullivans men were able to reach Carl Road on the eastern end of the airfield by 10:40am. Meanwhile Logie's men reduced the Canary and advanced rapidly until they reached the deadly Cat strongpoint. Here they faced tiers of well-concealed defensive works, taking many lives until they also reached Carl Road at 10:40. The Americans were now facing the main defensive system of the island. In front of it lay a deep tank trap, connected to long rifle trenches. Beyond this was anti-tank ditches and an elaborate organized set of defensive positions called Corn strongpoint. They were in for a hell of a time. I would like to take this time to remind you all that this podcast is only made possible through the efforts of Kings and Generals over at Youtube.

The Most Haunted City On Earth | Presented by The Savannah Underground
Don't miss a single haunted adventure! (including the one in a few days on January 25th/26th! Grow with us and join The Parajunkie Fam! www.patreon.com/savannahunderground Welcome back to another spine-tingling episode of the Paranormal Podcast, titled "The Most Haunted City on Earth! This episode delves into the chilling tale of Bathsheba Sherman, a figure shrouded in mystery and horror. Despite the lack of written history or records about her life or the alleged infant's death, the folklore surrounding Bathsheba paints a picture of dark rituals and sinister deeds. We explore the narratives handed down through generations, transforming Bathsheba from a person into a terrifying legend. Witnesses like Mr. Mckeachurn, who knew Bathsheba in his youth, contribute to her nightmarish image, while Carolan's discovery of the unmarked Bell Stone on the Arnold estate adds another layer to this enigmatic story. Lorraine Warren, a renowned paranormal investigator, famously identified Bathsheba as a demonic presence in the Perron family's house, intensifying the legend. The episode also delves into the haunting history of the house itself, a place marked by tragedies including drownings and suicides. Multiple families, including the Arnolds, Richardsons, and Bakers, suffered untimely deaths here, with many of the details lost to time. The Warrens' involvement in the case, spurred by a call from Keith Johnson, reveals their harrowing experiences during their investigations. The most striking event is the seance-turned-exorcism, where Carolyn Perron was said to have been possessed, leading to a terrifying ordeal that nearly ended her life. The episode also features insights from Andrea Perron, who offers a more sympathetic view of Bathsheba and shares her own experiences with the spirits in the house, including the benevolent Abigail Arnold and the mysterious Scottish broken-neck woman. Andrea's reflections on Ed and Lorraine Warren's efforts provide a deeper understanding of the complexities and challenges of paranormal investigation. Tune in for a journey through the layers of myth, history, and personal accounts that make this story a hauntingly unforgettable chapter in paranormal lore. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/john-taylor-timmons/support

I'm reminded of the movie “The 6th Day” with Arnold Schwarzenegger which takes place some time in the future. I'm probably telling my age if I'm referencing a movie with Arnold but, well, it is what it is. This movie takes place sometime in the future and one of the elements that I remember vividly is that Arnold's best friend in the movie had for a wife a woman that was, well, artificial. He was able to talk to her as if she was a really person and thanks to technology, he could even simulate touch and we all know what that means. Like most movies that used to seem outlandish, technology is making what was once considered impossible, indeed, very possible. In this episode I reference an article by professor of data science at Washington University, Liberty Vittert, title “AI Girlfriends Are Ruining An Entire Generation of Men.” (The Hill). She gives some staggering stats on how men, specifically young men are being effected by this new phenomenon and how this play into our society as a whole. In an interview on CNN Liberty goes on to say that we are just in the beginning phases of this AI craze and that it won't be long before the tech will not only allow someone to chat with an AI girlfriend, but like Arnolds best friend in the movie, it will have the capability to simulate real, physical touch. As always, we discuss this new epidemic, as described in the article, through the lens of the Christian faith. Be sure to follow to join the conversation at www.juntopodcast.com
