Guadalcanal, Solomon Islands

Landing craft and barges bring fresh supplies to a Guadalcanal beach, probably in December 1942 or January 1943.
The LCP in the center, just beyond the barge full of piled boxes, is from USS American Legion (AP-35). One of the LCVs in the background is from USS Hunter Liggett (AP-27).
