Guadalcanal invaded
2 marines and 2 infantry, 3AAF and CVEs and shorebombardment total a 2:1 attack on Guadalcanal. The first wave gets bogged down with heavy losses(5 factors), but the second attack succeeds after further bloody fighting. In total the Americans lost 8 factors in this battle against entrenched and desperate Japanese forces in this three month- long campaign to secure the island

Invasion of Kwajalein Atoll
After a massive shorebombardment and air strikes, British and American army units(this time without marines) land on Kwajalein at 2:1. Nonetheless, without the well-practiced landing routines of the marines, many allied lives were lost as landing craft sink in the exceptionally strong surf. Others run aground on the reef, forcing the men to wade the last 100 m through waste high water where they were easy targets for surviving Japanese riflemen and machine gunners. In the end, the island was taken for 6 factors lost.
