I recommend the book..."A Helmet for my Pillow"....by Robert Leckie...
Excellent writer.........And was THERE!

He was also at Guadalcanal. When I was in high school, I read and enjoyed his book Challenge for the Pacific; Guadalcanal, the turning point of the war (Garden City, NY: Doubleday. 1965).
