太平洋戦争にて、タラワの戦いでアメリカ軍海兵隊が1943年11月21日にベティオ島の海岸に上陸した時に、日本軍から最初の激しい戦闘を受けた。日本軍は約45,00人で強固な要塞化により、アメリカ軍兵士は約1,000人以上が殺害され、約2,300人以上が戦傷した。日本軍は、約1,200人の朝鮮人労働者を強制的にギルバート諸島タラワ環礁に連行して防衛施設を構築させた。朝鮮人労働者は、悲劇のタラワの戦いに巻き込まれて約1,000人殺害されて、生存者はわずか約129人のみであった。日本軍は、最後まで徹底的に抵抗して、最後には11月23日に玉砕して全滅した。日本軍側の戦死者は、約4,700人に達して生存者はわずか約30人のみであった。
We can only silently witness the suffering of our citizens as they lie in state due to the war. The dignity of the local community and family is being lost in the face of the imminent war. War victims who have experienced the war want to give a record of the tragic war. As a representative of the citizens who crossed the stormy seas of war, we would like to send a compass for peace to the many citizens of peace.
