>>92572That's bullshit.
It's around 100 killed and 221 wounded, not over 300 dead and 2,500 wounded.
A Japanese mine blew up the USS Abner Read, killed 71. The rest were friendly fire. Keep in mind it was foggy as shit.
(But honestly there were clear hints that the nips left. All the anti-aircraft guns used previously during the bombardment of the island were now completely silent. )
