20 November 1943 - Tarawa 2d Marine Division launches an amphibious assault against Betio Island in Tarawa Atoll, Gilbert Islands. Only the use of amphibian tractors allows the leading waves to get through the shallow water covering the coral shelf around the island. The Marines establish a beachhead at great cost. This marks the kick-off of the Central Pacific Campaign. Find out more about the amphibious assault of Tarawa in our WWII Gallery: http://www.usmcmuseum.com/wwii.html #OTD #TDIH #WWII
