Four Cruisers and six Destroyers poured fire on the town. Casualties for the first two days consisted of 22 KIA, 2 DOW, 2 MIA, 196 WIA, with total battle casualties of 222. POWs captured 300, Enemy casualties 1,350. The picture shows four LSTs unloading equipment on D-plus-2. Note that they sit firmly stuck in mud. The mud flats extend far out into the harbor.
