Battle of Tarawa

Battle of Tarawa

Abstract
This research paper addresses the topic of the Battle of Tarawa and its historical relevance to the evolution of warfare.  Research employed an external critique and examination of the literature, historical documents, and periodicals that examine and bring to life the pivotal battle that takes place on Betio.  Research revealed that the Battle of Tarawa was the key element for allied forces winning the war in the Pacific, and lent a decisive hand in the changing of amphibious doctrine.  This Research also focuses on the mistakes made in a doctrine prepared during the First World War and never put into affect until the Pacific War.  This doctrine used in the pacific theater would be refined and eventually lead to successful engagements in the Korean War.

The Battle of Tarawa and Amphibious Doctrine
	In the two decades before the United States entered World War Two, the United States Marine Corps made a name for itself in the military establishment by being the only force to develop and prepare for amphibious warfare.  The war in the pacific was to be the proving grounds for this amphibious doctrine and revalidate the Marines as the Americas premier fighting force.  Tarawa
