Just days after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, Japanese forces seized the U.S.-held Pacific island of Guam. It remained a strategic military point throughout World War II, until American forces reclaimed the island in 1944.
Today, a total of seven sites around the island make up this National Historical Park. These areas stand together as a beautiful way to honor all those who served during the Battle of Guam. Those who visit the park are able to enjoy a variety of outdoor activities such as snorkeling, fishing and hiking.
