Overview:
The invasion of Tulagi was one of the several small preliminary invasions planned to secure the flanks of the Guadalcanal attack. The units selected for the invasion of Tulagi were the highly trained 1st Raider Battalion and the 2nd Battalion, Fifth Marines. The landings at Blue Beach were unopposed, and according to plan the 2nd Battalion Marines moved northwest while the Raiders moved east to secure the island. Almost immediately, the Raiders encountered resistance, but managed to make slow, steady progress throughout the day until they dug in for the night. During the night, the Japanese launched four separate attacks against the Raider's positions, but each attack was repelled. At dawn on the 8th, under the protective cover of 60mm and 81mm mortar barrages, the Raiders advanced on Hill 280.Attacker: American (USMC) (Companies A and C, 1st Raider Battalion)
