I have not looked this up but my memory was that we were on the left bank and the Japanese were on the right bank as they had landed on the northeastern tip of the island.

Am I wrong? It wouldn't be the first time.

I was curious about this as well. The show was correct. If you look up Battle of the Tenaru on wikipedia it shows where things took place. The Marines took up positions on the west bank of the creek/river.
