What were the results of the battle of peleliu?
Strategically, none. Absolutely none. Zero, zip, zilch, nada, butkus. The Americans did capture the island, so it changed hands. And thousands of Americans died to do it, and even more thousands of Japanese troops died, as they all had to be killed, because they would not surrender, no matter how hopeless their situation. But those are the entirety of the results. The operation had been planned to provide flank security for the US invasion of the southern Philippines. However, carrier raids on the southern Philippines disclosed previously unsuspected Japanese weakness in the southern Philippines, and the decision was made to forget the invasion of the southern Philippines and to proceed directly to invading the northern Philippines, on Leyte and other islands. But nobody saw fit to cancel an operation, undertaken solely and entirely to provide flank security for the main operation, which main operation was now canceled. There was absolutely NO REASON WHATSOEVER to proceed with the invasion of Peleliu. Any aircraft based on Peleliu did not have the range to reach the northern Philippines, even on a one-way suicide run. So the whole thing was utterly and completely pointless, and affected the ultimate outcome of the war in not the slightest degree, except to bring completely unnecessary grief to thousands of families whose loved ones found an early grave on Peleliu.
