| Keywords: monochrome outdoor Lot-801-33: Guadalcanal Campaign, 7 August 1942 – February 9 1943. Backwash of War. Strewn along the shore of Guadalcanal island, the wreckage of these ships of the Son of Heaven’s proud fleet lie sodden and sagging, as though cast up by a titanic storm. No surge of primeval wave or bolt of lightning could be more effective than the man-made thunderbolt that wreaked this havoc – the bombs and guns of Uncle Sam’s Navy. Photo Caption: High and Dry, smashed by the U.S. Navy’s guns during the last stages of the battle for Guadalcanal, this Japanese landing boat and its sister ships litter the shore of the Pacific stronghold. Photograph released July 20, 1943. U.S. Navy Photograph. Photographed through Mylar sleeve. (2015/11/06). Lot-801-33: Guadalcanal Campaign, 7 August 1942 – February 9 1943. Backwash of War.
