Guadalcanal - The Island of Death on Blu-ray! On August 7, 1942, eight months to the day after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, US Marines of the 1st Division landed on an obscure Pacific Island called Guadalcanal. It marked the first American offensive of WWII. The campaign to secure the island lasted six months, and for much of its course, the balance teetered precariously from one side to the other. It included six major naval battles, daily aerial engagements and countless clashes on land. No campaign in either theater saw such sustained action by sea, land and air.
