The Battle of Okinawa was the last and bloodiest fight of the Pacific War between the United States and Japan. This brutal clash, fought on Japan's doorstep, cost the lives of over 100,000 Okinawan civilians and thousands of soldiers on both sides. The horrors of this battle convinced President Harry S.
