A US Army 43rd Infantry Division patrol searches for a Japanese dugout in the thick New Georgia jungle on 9 July 1943, just days after landing on the island. Here, a GI swings across a stream on a jungle vine as one of his patrol mates prepares to catch him. The other patrol members in the background have their eyes trained on the jungle, wary of enemy snipers. (USAMHI)

A US soldier with his M1 Garand at the ready covers the return of his platoon mates from a mission to destroy an enemy machine-gun nest along a jungle trail on the way to Munda in July 1943. The patrol is descending a creek’s embankment and is using a log across the waterway to support their footing. (NARA)
