[John Beaman]

I do not know how many of you have read The First Team and the Guadalcanal Campaign, but it is worth a read. It is meticulously researched and written in an easy style despite all the detail. The author often matches up individual names in combat from both sides.

It is also intriguing that both sides, the JNAF, USMC and USN fighter pilots were consistently overclaimers, often by 50-75%. It is amazing to read how many claims for Betty" type bombers were made and credited and that so many damaged ones made it back to base considering its reputation as the "Type 1 lighter".
