Against Terrible odds, strategically-located Wake Island was defended by
a handful of brave Americans during the opening 'days of infamy' in
December ,1941. Isolated and alone against the might of the japanese
Navy, this intrepid group held their own on land and in the air for weeks,
inspiring a nation and establishing fame for the Marine Corps.
Now this valiant group has been honored in a beautiful limited edition
lithograph by John D Shaw. Each print has been personally autographed
by the artist and over 30 veterans of this epic conflict, which truly was a
Magnificent Fight.
