This exquisitely laser engraved plaque honors all six of the United States Marine Corps Divisions in the Pacific Theater of Operation during World War II.
You may order the plaque with sand from beaches as shown, or you may follow your loved ones progress with sand from the specific beaches they landed on for only $20.00 more.

There are so many things marine related on the market but this is so unique that its a must buy. Just the history, blood and sweat our brothers spilled for the world and to have a small bit of sand from that location is beyond words for me.

Everything one could expect with such an item. Outstanding service and great attention to detail and history it represents. Obviously sellers are people who love there work! This is my fourth such item. Every one has been outstanding. I sincerely hope here will be one or two more such items. Soil/sand from Midway Island, Wake Island, and the Philippines would be great to add to the history wall.

This is a great piece of history. The fact that the sand of each invasion beach was individually collected and certified will never be duplicated. I now have 3 plaques and they make a beautiful display. Each plaque has been very will crafted!

This is the 4th plaque that I have bought from Day of Days. They have all been very well done and look great on display. A great addition to any WW2 collection.

I’ve had the pleasure to meet Joel several years ago. His passion to bring a piece of history to you the buyer is unmatched. I have purchased and displayed all of his unique plaques for others to enjoy in my home and it is a great conversation piece.
I have also purchased several dozen by now, for retirement gifts and raffle items for non-profit groups that I find raise for! They have never disappointed!!!
These are a tangible piece of history you can have at your finger tips if you can’t afford to travel to the actual locations. Joel put a lot of time and effort to make available, these one of a kind pieces of history.
You won’t be disappointed in your purchase!

I have been a long time customer of Joel~ this will be my fourth plaque! His work and dedication is always felt through his pieces and correspondence. The engraving on the plaque is clear and crisp and the vials are removable to observe to your heart’s content ☆ Absolutely don’t hesitate to purchase this for the historian/ veteran/ hobbyist (or yourself) in your life!

My fiancé, an Army Veteran and history scholar, loved his plaque. This is the second one I have gotten him here, and he was moved by and appreciative of them both. They really are unique pieces of history. The quality, shipping, and customer service are all top-notch. Thanks, Joel! Great work.
