1		Stagione 1	The Pacific segue le avventure di tre Marines degli Stati Uniti d'America - Robert Leckie, Eugene Sledge e John Basilone - nello scenario del Pacifico della Seconda Guerra Mondiale. La straordinaria esperienza di questi uomini e dei loro compagni Marine li trascina dal primo scontro con i Giapponesi nella giungla di Guadalcanal, attraverso le fitte e piovose foreste di Capo Gloucester, fra le barriere coralline di Peleliu, sulle terre nere di Iwo Jima, in mezzo ai campi mortali di Okinawa, fino al trionfante, nonché scomodo, ritorno in patria dopo la sconfitta del Giappone.	2010	10	D
