Summary[edit]

U.S. Navy map of U.S. and Japanese ship locations, just prior to opening fire during battle of November 13, 1942. U.S. ship locations are fairly accurate, except that the first U.S. ships in line began to jumble formation just before opening fire. The Japanese ship locations aren't completely accurate. From Jameson, Colin G. (1944) The Battle of Guadalcanal, 11–15 November 1942, Publications Branch, Office of Naval Intelligence, United States Navy. http://www.ibiblio.org/hyperwar/USN/USN-CN-Guadalcanal/maps/USN-CN-Guadalcanal-2.jpg
