Background
***********
To make the first Buna Allied offensive in the Pacific more
effective, the Americans readied a separate attack from
a different direction. That decision brought American forces
into the Solomon Islands and U.S. Army infantry onto
the island of Guadalcanal.
Amphibian tractors, Guadalcanal
On the morning of August 7th, 1942, the First Marine
Division followed heavy naval preparatory shelling, and
landed on the north beaches east of the Tenaru River.
In a three-month struggle marked by disease
(diarrhea, malaria, dysentery, skin fungus),
and many casualties, the marines took an airfield and
established a beachhead roughly six miles wide and
three miles deep.
During the last weeks of 1942 and the first weeks
of 1943, the Americans strengthened their foothold
on Guadalcanal by reorganizing and bringing in fresh
troops, the Second Marine Division and the
25th Infantry Division. The Japanese held off five
American battalions for a month, which delayed the
advance west long enough for the defenders to
evacuate 13,000 men from the island. Allied forces
quickly constructed landing strips — the first series of
island hopping had begun.
Thats where our SEC 27 starts!
