Summary

[edit]
Description
English: “THANKS TO TOJO--- Marines on Guadalcanal use these Japanese built shacks for a photo lab and office.”

"[T]his is of where the Fifth Marines made their first headquarter.s The building on the extreme right was used for the regimental headquarters. The building next to it was a Japanese darkroom and we took that over for the division photographic darkroom. The next building was the Japanese telephone exchange and none of that equipment worked and we got that all out of thee and the photographic section was in there. The man in the door way is PFC Sexton. This, by the way, again is very early. It must have been before the fifteenth of August.'
