Description

Bringing In the Ammo, painting by Aaron Bohrod

  • U.S. Army identifies the location as Rendova. Bohrod was present at the June 1943 landing.
  • Notes, quoting Bohrod: "Supplies kept pouring in: rations, ammunition, barracks bags. These were stacked on the first patch of solid ground found beyond the beach. Symbolic flags of different colors were unfurled to mark off the various dumps. There seemed to be a certain amount of confusion though, too, there was a relaxation on the part of the men when they saw that the landing had been almost wholly unopposed. The predominant crouching, crawling, gun handling aspect of the war changed to a tugging, carrying, piling, digging and wiring aspect."
