The Imperial Japanese Navy's Special Landing Force units enjoyed a reputation out of proportion to their small size. Often wrongly termed "Imperial Marines", they were in fact sailors led by Naval officers, and traced their origins directly to landing parties from warships. Their true combat debut was at Shanghai in 1932; thereafter the SNLF expanded and fought in the assaults that followed Pearl Habor in 1941, and were dispersed as island garrisons during the Pacific campaigns. This book describes their uniforms and equipment in unprecedented detail, including color photos of original items from private collections. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

That's fine for militaria collectors but for general overview of unit itself and its combat history it is more than lacking. At the times it felt like I was reading through collectors catalog of Japanese militaria. Again, very interesting but not something I have expected.
If you are interested in Japanese WW2 elite units buy it but don't expect too much in terms of unit combat history. (
