---

Oh yeah, those girls are sweet.

Incoming!

- Holy Sh*t! Japs everywhere!

- We got company! Japs!

Get to your firearm!

Charge!

Charge!

Here they come!

Long live the Empire of Japan!

Cover! Cover!

Get on the horn!

Able Victor Crow. This is Victor

Blue. Can you read? Over!

Victor Blue. This is Able Victor Crow.

Go ahead, over.

Look out!

This is Victor Crow!

We're getting a god damn Jap banzai attack!

- We'll be trying to hold them back!

- Get the Captain... Get the Captain!

Captain!

Requesting immediate

fire mission on my mark!

I say again! 1 stick 4 items!

Fire for effect...!

C'mon! Get outta here!

Victor Blue. Repeat last

transmission. Over.

Victor Blue. Repeat last

transmission. Over.

Mike! Get your ass up!

We're going in the field!

Captain. That's Travis.

- I think it's been overrun.

- Sh*t...

Find out what's going on now.

Banzai...!

Banzai...!

On the 7th of July.

And what came to be known

as the Banzai Attack.

Over 4,000 Japanese

and close to 2,000 American lives were

lost in a space of only a few hours.

Two days later,

the American commanders would declare a

total military victory on the island of Saipan.

Keep your eyes open! Check em' out!

Could be some live ones!

So you fear death?

Who are you?

Speak of the dead.

Horiuchi Kesamatsu.

Private First Class.

Here! Near Mt Tapochau.

It's a place the Japanese

are calling the Valley of Hell.

It was here that General Saito

along with his other commanders

committed suicide in front of their men.

And they did this the night

before they launched the attack.

The night before?!

That's right, sir.

The night before the attack.

They want to die for their god emperor.

Though they just assume,

take us with them.

They kill themselves...

The night before hitting the battlefield.

What sense does that make!?

Well, by dying this way

in front of their men

They're showing their men the way.

They're setting an example.

Continue, Sergeant.

Now up here. Marpi Point.

Calling these cliffs, the Banzai cliffs.

Because apparently civilians are throwing

themselves into the rocks in the sea below.

Women, children and entire

families are killing themselves, sir.

Women and children?

Why?!

Seems that the Japanese

military has told them

That we Americans are

cannibals and torturers.

They are terrified, sir.

The Japs have lost their commanders.

And we've crushed their armies.

Now I tell you boys

The end is in sight.

Thank god for that.

Because this must stop right now!

You're right Colonel.

But I feel we can't be too

optimistic about this.

This is still a volatile situation.

Id like to try and convince

them to surrender, sir.
