Higgins boats; an LCI(G) gunboat; and a Fletcher-class destroyer are seen, offshore, in the background. A double column of marines marching with full field gear along a dirt road. They pass other marines climbing aboard a DUKW headed in the opposite direction. Marines lift a jeep from a DUKW, and place it on the ground, using an A-Frame crane hoist installed on another DUKW. Sequence shifts to the beach, where wounded are seen in a Higgins boat. Coast guard crewmen close the ramp door of the boat so it can proceed away from the shore. Gunboats and ships in background. Next, a Higgins boat hits the beach and marines climb out through the surf, carrying ammunition boxes. They are followed by a jeep driving off the boat. In this same scene, other Higgins boats are seen heading to the shore and the Fletcher-class destroyer, and gun boats are visible in the background. A Higgins boat from the USS Lenawee (APA-195) hits the beach and marines rush ashore from it carrying spools of communications wire and other supplies.
