File:GuadNakagumaMatanikauDeadJapanese.jpg
Dead Japanese Army soldiers lie near the mouth of the Matanikau after a failed attack on U.S. Marine positions on Guadalcanal on October 23-24, 1942. Scanned from:
Hammel, Eric, Guadalcanal, The U.S. Marines in World War II, Zenith Press, St. Paul, MN, 2007.
However, other sources identify this photo as being from Saipan on 8 July 1944 after the failure of the large Japanese banzai charge.
Book states that photo is official USMC image.
