Summary

Description

"Barbed Wire Doesn't Stop Them-A Marine with fixed bayonet leads others around a barbed wire entanglement on the beach at Tarawa as the Marines took the island. Grim determination is etched on the leader's face as he carries his rifle in the crook of his arm instead of in his wounded hand."

From the Julian C. Smith Collection (COLL/202), Marine Corps Archives & Special Collections
