Nice PH !! thumbsup.gif

Interestingly, thats one of the islands I don't have a posthumous USMC Purple Heart for in the collection. I've got posthumous USMC Purple Hearts for Guadalcanal, Peleliu, Saipan, Eniwetok, Iwo, and Okinawa, along with Raider, fighter pilot and aircrew posthumous PHs. I even have Korea and Vietnam posthumous USMC Purple Hearts but haven't come across a Tinian or Tarawa or Guam for that matter in all these years of collecting.

Thanks for showing !!
