ギルバート諸島沖航空戦で勝ったのはどっち？
In the Gilberts, the Americans emerged victorious, but were caught unprepared, suffering 2,459 dead and 2,286 wounded. Japan suffered a total of 5,085 dead and 247 captured. The heavy casualties and gruesome fighting conditions for both sides convinced General Holland M. Smith, Commanding General of the V Amphibious Corps, that Tarawa should have been bypassed, although other American admirals disagreed.
