THis Marine has the full transport pack. The one on the ramp in an earlier picture appears to have the haversack with no tent roll. Same series of Photos when they are waiting to leave Guadalcanal. Maybe he removed the blanket/tent roll to wrap the captured MG in thats seen in the series of pictures.. Can also see a cleaning rod handle in the end of the barrel. Another Marine has a Japanese flag tied to a rifle US Marines on Guadalcanal wait to leave following months of fighting the Japanese - January 1943 LIFE Magazine Archives - Ralph Morse Photographer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
