I guess I'm flabbergasted that the asshole is using a military term, ' #inTheatre' , as if they're storming #OmahaBeach or #Guadalcanal or #Baghdad instead of being an occupying force in an #UnitedStates City 💀

Black and white photo of soldiers walking in a column down a hill with the book’s title superimposed over it. Midnight In The Pacific: Guadalcanal The World War II Battle That Turned The Tide Of War. Joseph Wheelan.

Finished my first book of the new year. “Guadalcanal Diary” may be the more famous book about the battle (and don’t forget the movie), but this book tells the story in all its gory details. Informative, fascinating, horrifying. #history #books #WWII #reading #Guadalcanal

#OTD Nov. 13 1942, #USSJuneau was torpedoed and sunk during the naval battle for #Guadalcanal. Onboard were five brothers, all killed during the action or shorty afterward. The #Sullivans became the face of sacrifice in battle and America's commitment to winning the #SecondWorldWar. #NavalHistory
