Battle of Saipan, Saipan, Mariana Islands
American Marines known as Montford Point Marines keep low as they await orders to launch their attack shortly after they had come ashore ahead of the Battle of Saipan, during the Second World War, at Saipan, Mariana Islands, June 1944. Montford Point Marines were named so for having completed their training at Montford Point Camp, the site of recruit training for the first African Americans to serve in the Marine Corps.
