Twenty-seven Japanese veterans from tank units stationed on the neighboring island of Saipan during World War II (WWII) came to pay respects to fallen comrades during a 60th Anniversary reunion. These veterans had family and friends stationed on Guam, and they didn't learn of their fates for years following the war. They came today with their families to place flowers, burn incense, light candles and give prayers at Tarague Beach a sight of major conflict during the war. The Japanese tank units at Tarague were the last enemy tanks on Guam and with their destruction by the United States Marine Corp (USMC) all organized resistance on Guam had ended
