The true story of Carlson's Raiders and their World War II attack on Makin Island. Seven weeks after Pearl Harbor, volunteers form the new 2nd Marine Raider Battalion whose purpose is to raid Japanese-held islands. The men selected come from different walks of life but have toughness in common. Under command of Colonel 'Thorwald', they're trained in all imaginable forms of combat. Then, after a perilous submarine journey, they face a daunting first mission: to annihilate the much larger Japanese garrison on Makin Island, in a lengthy battle sequence.
"Gung Ho!" is the Battle cry of the Marine raiders.
Starring a young Robert Mitchum, Randolph Scott, Noah Beery Jr., Alan Curtis, Sam Levene, and J. Carrol Naish.
Originally released on December 20, 1943.

I know its just a movie but God Bless The US Soldiers!!
They are not soldiers. They are Marines.
And don't forget the war criminals.
Amen!
The greatest generations deffo 💚
@@johnkennedy972 Great killers of civil persons, deffo.
Sad ,that love of country does ‘ t exist today.college students don’t know our past because American history isn’t taught.many would not fight for America today.
the other point is that those young people aren't exposed to the WW2 veterans like my late father.
the students of today are not exposed to the WW2 veterans like my late father.
I think every generation thinks they are better than the next generation but when push comes to shove our following generations will rise up and overcome. My grandfather fought at Vimy Ridge with 22 nd regiment [ Vandoos] . Survived the war and raised a family of eight. In 1939 he tried to enlist but was refused due to age. He joined the Home Guard and guarded nazi prisoners at Red Rock Ontario. When the time comes our boys will for fight freedom and us , no doubt.
You don't know your American history if you believe this version is not complete BS.
Fine movie!!!
No man left behind
That’s not always true! Unfortunately, some were left behind. These special elite groups had their orders and knew the circumstances of what may happen if they didn’t get back to their rendezvous destinations. I don’t say that I agree with what happened to these individuals, but it was war! Some men sacrificed themselves for the benefit of others! ❤

Of course this movie was made to inspire a war time audience. It is not a 'historically accurate' type of movie. This movie is for people interested in seeing what the public was seeing at that time. If one is interested in the story of the Makin Island raid it is better to look elsewhere.
As one of the first actions in the Pacific War it had its share of problems and mistakes. It is actually quite controversial and very interesting.
Whoops Robert Mitchum not Kirk.
👍👊
going in a dawn doesn't make any sense to me.
In 2024 the love story part of the move is not what it was then. Then, she needs to pick one guy. Now, she has 2 guys.
if it wasn't for toxic masculinity, we would either be speaking german or japanese.
Propaganda . Needed for the War effort .
Yup.
jimfritz2087 : Jim , You Yourself do realize that " Propaganda" is NOT such a bad word, per se, and, That is NOT what I Myself AM implying that You said. It merely means to promulgate the ideas, ideology, and truths of America and The United States Constitution.🇺🇸🇺🇲🦅🌎⚓🪖🎖️💣💥🔥🇺🇸🇺🇲
@JohnRodriguez-si9si I know that during WW 2 , both Allied + Axis countries put out propaganda films. To boost morale + raise money for their war efforts . That's all my original post said. No problems on my end. Best Wishes to you .
@@jimfritz2087knowing now that they can print money at will, do you still see it the same way?
@yousername78 the " Back to the Future" mentality . 👎 👎
What a wierd bit of pro Am war propaganda, Not a bad film all the same.Did I see a young Kirk Douglass in this?
This is such a stupid movie. This not even close to depicting what actually happened with the Makin Island raid. The heroic story of these men is far more glorious than what these jackass film makers produced. I couldn't even watch it until the end, it's so bad. Terrible movie. The facts of the true story are so much more amazing to consider as to what these men endured and accomplished. The mission had a lot of things go wrong because the planning was not exactly the best. It was a new concept (America's first special forces) and I'm sure they learned a lot from the failures. Some men were unintentionally left behind and they were eventually captured by the Japanese and beheaded. There were great successes and great failures in the mission. This movie is far from an accurate account of this historical story.
Propaganda . For the war effort .
What's the best book about what actually happened?
@@ric5210Grimms Märchen😂
Was the true story general knowledge when this flick was made? Probably not. The film Wake Island was mainly conjecture as no one knew what had actually happened to the defenders when the film was rushed out for propaganda reasons.
I realize that the movie isn’t accurate and that there were mistakes made on both sides during the actual raid, however, it’s just a movie.
MASH wasn’t accurate either, but it was entertainment.
I don’t say these things lightly as I had family serve our country. My paternal grandfather served in WWI. His three oldest sons served in WWII one of which didn’t make it home. My father served in the Korean War and went on to Japan and then Vietnam. My maternal uncle served in the Vietnam War and was exposed to Agent Orange and struggled with health issues the rest of his life. My son in-law served in Iraq and is now permanently disabled. 😢
So sorry that you think this is such a terrible movie, but I am enjoying watching it.
Schools don’t have the time to teach every aspect of the different scenarios that took place during WWII as there was so many facets of the war. I don’t remember learning about the Makin Raiders. I looked at up to understand what happened, but it didn’t deter me from continuing to watch the movie. There have been a lot of movies made based on actual events, but the directors and producers couldn’t be 100% accurate because they didn’t have the time or the budget.
While I understand and agree with what you’re saying about this movie not depicting what actually happened, it’s just that…a movie!
I am proud of all of my family members and friends who have served this great country, and if you served, I thank you for your service! I cannot hold Hollywood accountable for what was left out of any movie. I choose to accept the positive impact that these movies portray! Right or wrong doesn’t always mean accuracy it means that it is an historical account of what happened.
