At Okinawa, the 29th Marines fought through the northern part of the island before being committed to the savage fighting in the south, including the hellish assault on the Sugar Loaf-Half Moon-Horseshoe hill complex. The regiment relieved the battered 22nd Marines at Sugar Loaf and continued the assault, fighting through some of the most intense close combat of the Pacific War. The 29th Marines earned a Presidential Unit Citation for their actions at Okinawa, helping the 6th Division capture two-thirds of the island and accounting for over 23,000 enemy killed or captured.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePerfect For:\n\u003cbr\u003eWWII veterans connected to the 29th Marines, 6th MARDIV association members, Okinawa and Sugar Loaf Hill historians, Melanesia campaign researchers, and anyone who honors the Marines who fought through the Pacific's bloodiest battlefields.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFrom Melanesia's jungles to Okinawa's ridges — the 29th Marines.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"USMCinsignia.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":15487977128045,"sku":"","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0742\/9831\/products\/marreg-29_5f3e8fa4-11ec-4ace-bbde-3a15d5be141d.jpg?v=1517601334"},{"product_id":"usmc-raider-bn","title":"Officially Licensed USMC Raider Battalion Patches","description":"\u003cp\u003eUSMC Raider Battalion Patches — Embroidered Patch\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSpiritus Invictus — The Spirit of the Raiders Lives On\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Marine Raider legacy spans from the jungles of World War II to the special operations battlefields of the 21st century.

Though disbanded in 1944, their legacy was reborn when Marine Special Operations Command (MARSOC) was established in 2006 and its operators were officially designated as Marine Raiders in 2015.
