One of the coolest pics is of this USN Veteran, 'Mac' Mackay. He made the trip back to one of the islands. The very LST (342) he rode in on is still sat were it mounted the beach all those years ago! Must have been a spooky day for him to see that.

Cool Images
I esp. like the Iron Bottom Sound Image (Between Cape Esperance and Savo Island).
Lot,s of steel down there.

Forgot to mention to look out for Robert Ballards (Of Titanic fame) book "lost Ships of Guadalcanal".
A magnificant publication,as per usual from this gentleman.

Amazing photo that one.
With most of the side structure gone, sadly wont take long for the deck area to collapse.
Cheers.
