In follow-up to our post, Guadalcanal: from bloody battlefields to bustling staging area, I want to provide some further context and statistics regarding the US Armed Forces wartime farming and logging operations on Guadalcanal (a fascinating and important aspect of the Pacific War that for the most part has been lost to history and largely ignored by historians) highlighted in the article, Guadalcanal Goes Garrison, published in the 18 August 1944 issue of YANK.
