Orange Beach in Peleliu.

The bloodiest battle in the Pacific
was fought here.

Named Orange Beach because of
the color of the beach from
all the blood.

Peleliu Corner dive spot.

Peleliu is a very beautiful island.

We are at Ngerikl

Another really nice park.

A really cool sink hole
the Palauans call
Ngermelt .

We were jumping off and
having a good swim.

The Japanese Memorial at Bloody Nose Ridge

 

The 1^st Marine Division Memorial
at Bloody Nose Ridge.

I was really excited to see the Marine Memorial and Orange Beach because one of
my professors on my MS degree committee at Texas A&M University,
Dr. Sammy Ray, served in the 1^st Marine Division.
He landed on Peleliu on D-Day, 15 Sep 1944.

Thanks for all your support Sammy!
