The Seabees on Iwo Jima chronicles the United States Naval Construction Battalions of WWII. These skilled tradesmen, some in their 60s, built crucial airfields and bases across the Pacific. Their remarkable construction of runways on coral islands enabled America to bring the war to Japan's doorstep by 1945.
