Historical Background:
On Guam Island, the 1st Provisional Marine Brigade had reached the isthmus of the Orote Peninsula in the evening of the 25th of July and made entrenchment for the night. But in the darkness, the Marines heard a lot of laughs and bottles noises from the enemy side : In fact, Japanese troops of Commander Tamai prepared a suicide charge by getting drunk before the assault. Around midnight, hundreds of drunk men appeared and attacked the Marines positions. An artillery barrage and the fire of all Marines weapons made a slaughter among the attackers and the Japanese assault failed definitively.
