Description
Nearly four hundred US Marines who died in the battle of Guadalcanal have no known grave. Leaving Mac Behind reconstructs the lives, last moments, and legacies of some of these men. Original records, eyewitness accounts, and recent discoveries shed light on the lost graves of these missing Marines, and the efforts to bring them home.
