This was a very interesting episode, where we got a little bit of everything. But it is clear to see, now that we've gotten to the Peleliu arc, things will get rougher from here on.
And hey, we're halfway now!

I have the DVD set and it doesn’t have any of that in the beginning. Are you using a digital version or DVD?

The normal temperature is normally around 31 C I found several articles that mention temperatures of 46 C. Then add to that the stress and physical exertion of combat makes me wonder how many men died of heat exhaustion.

But after this show I know i have said it before but I still highly recommend Generation Kill, which is a great contrast to the Pacific as it follows the Marines of the 1st Recon Battliaion who where at the tip of the Spear of the 2003 Iraq invasion and Marines have said its the most accarete representation of what it was like.

Its interesting to compare the two and see how they chose to portray the material.
