==Trivia==
*In Call of Duty: World at War, accurate maps of the Japanese forces on Peleliu can be found in-game single and multi-player.
*On the DS, what was meant to be the same map can be found, albeit more pixelized due to the Nintendo DS's lower graphical capability.
*Underneath the accurately-drawn map of Peleliu, the three Japanese kanji reads: "Big Rocky Island."
*Tank Dempsey has stated to have fought here.
