Guadalcanal - Hail of Bullets

Code breakers forewarning the movement

Midway the decisive defeat

Inflicting irreparable damage

Ambushing the imperial fleet

Preparing to neutralize the strongpoints

Launching the Pacific campaign

Invade this remote archipelago

Islands of which no-one knew their names

This godforsaken outpost

They must hold at any cost

«Say a prayer for your pal

At Guadalcanal»

Primitive first langings

Ashore the Solomons

The 1st Marine Division

Holding tight their guns

Witnessing how four Destroyers

Sank deep in The Slot

Then;

grim realization

That they were left to rot

Night Rat Transportation

The Tokyo Express

Delivering reinforcements

To slay the Leathernecks

Dug in round Henderson Field

On roots they survived

Standing firm on Bloody Nose

Till relief arrived
