I’m just saying, it can be done. My bro abandoned gaudalcanal as Americans, sent all there was there to Santa isabel. Naval units and bombers hammered the jap infantry there, killing them all. Malatia was an easy go, because it’s right by his troop and transport concentrations. That really hurt. But i’m just saying it can be done, even if it was risky to leave guadalcanal purely to naval bombardment and aerial ordnance.
