Sgt. Chaz Arurang, a supply administration and operations specialist with 4th Marine Aircraft Wing, whose daily task is the coordination, tracking and supply of aviation resources throughout the wing, finds his home aboard Marine Corps Support Facility New Orleans. Peleliu, Arurang’s native home island in the western pacific, is where one of the most ferocious and hardest fought battles by U.S. Marines took place during World War II. The 73-day long conflict resulted in the highest number of casualties of any amphibious assault in military history.
