STOP #12 SALLY POINT

STOP #12 SALLY POINT - The area around the air raid shelter and along the shoreline was another Japanese defensive complex called Sally Point. Japanese troops from this point poured heavy fire into the Marines, as they attempted to secure the positions on GREEN Beach. Japanese troops at Sally Point also fired on Marines on Ennugarret Island (next island south on the reef) who had established artillery firing points there the previous day. Continue through Sally Point to the intersection of Copra and Surf Roads. Turn right on Surf Road and stop at the large ammunition bunkers.
