U.S. Marine Corps Sgt. Thomas Stejskal, a cyber defense analyst with Delta Company 2nd Platoon, III Marine Expeditionary Force, studies a fortification at Kakazu Ridge on Okinawa, Japan, Aug. 3, 2024. The Marines visited Kakazu and Hacksaw Ridge to gain an understanding of the two locations’ roles' in the Battle of Okinawa. Kakazu Ridge was a battlefield where U.S. forces faced Japanese defenses to gain higher ground and advance further during the Battle of Okinawa. Hacksaw Ridge was a crucial battleground in World War II, where U.S. forces advanced through Okinawa to secure a critical vantage point and where Desmond Doss saved numerous lives with his actions without carrying a weapon. Stejskal is a native from Minnesota. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Martha Linares)
