What Army units fought at Tarawa, Iwo Jima and Saipan? The reason the Marine Corps was tasked with taking those islands was for the establishment of airfields and Naval bases, from which we could extend control over the Pacific approaches to the Japanese home islands.

Please explain why this message is being reported.
