...Rituals Contribution of Okinawa Battle to American Military
The Battle of Okinawa was fought between the Japanese and United States forces on Okinawa, which is the largest of the Ryukyu Islands. The battle took place from April 1 to June 21, 1945. This is considered to have been the last major battle of World War II and it was also the bloodiest of the battles. The invasion of Okinawa by the American forces was part of Operation Iceberg, which was a complex operation that aimed at invading and occupying the Ryukyu islands that also included Okinawa (Kan et al., 2018).

It is a people’s way of living, and refers to their shared beliefs, language, norms, values, materials objects passed down generations, and behaviors. The U.S is made up of people from different backgrounds such as the African Americans who make up 13% of the population, Whites 80%, Hispanic or Latinos 16%, Asians 5%, Native Hawaiians/Pacific Islanders 0.2%, and American Indians or Alaskan Natives 1%. Although Native Hawaiians make up only 0.2% of the population, they make a huge contribution to the American society (U.S. Census Bureau, 2009).
