Even though the amphibious campaigns the Marines in the Pacific Theater in WWII is viewed as being the most bloody, brutal, and dangerous of the war, the American military command that suffered the highest casualty rate in Wold War II neither fought in the Pacific or even on the ground.
The 8th Air Force holds the dubious title of having the highest casualty rate of any major American unit in the war. In fact, the 8th Air force had more men killed in the skys over Europe than the entire Marine Corps in the Pacific over the course of the war.
