The Allies Made a Big Mistake Landing Here

Operation Cottage

When an elite American–Canadian commando unit launched a heavy coastal barrage on the remote Alaskan island of Kiska, they were ready and charged to reclaim the area from the Japanese invaders. Operation Cottage began on the morning of August 15, 1943, and the assault was one of only a few World War 2 battles fought on United States soil. For two long days, the Allies made their way inland through a thick cloud of fog while facing constant machine-gun and artillery fire, landmines, and booby traps.
