	Description:		In this episode of Battleground, Saul and Patrick descend into the brutal depths of the Battle of Okinawa. Together they examine the strategic brilliance and tragic missteps on both sides, including the immense casualties that led to the deaths of both commanding generals: Lieutenant General Simon Bolivar Buckner Jr. for the Americans and Lieutenant General Mitsuru Ushijima for the Japanese. They also take a look at the unprecedented surge in kamikaze attacks, a desperate and devastating tactic employed by the Japanese to repel the Allied invasion fleet.
