JAP LANDING (Contlsaod Fiona Fags I) Tenaru. The main action started early this morning Japanese scouts, shortly after midnight, opened fire on our outposts located In a coconut grove on the west side of the Tenaru. The Japanese tried to infiltrate behind our positions by crawling down the beach, swimming out in the ocean and wading the shallow river upstream About 3 a m the main Japanese attack opened, supported by heavy machine gun and mortar fire. The Japanese charged down the beach and tried to cross a sandbar at the mouth of the Tenaru But a murderous fire from our light and heavy machine guns, artillery and rifles mowed down every Japanese who raced ont of thu coconut grove The Japanese bodies piled up on the sandbar like sandbags on a Mississippi river flood dike The Americans under Lieut. Col. L. B Grossweil of Mississippi then swept up on the Japanese while forces under Lieut. Col. Edwin A. Pollack. Augusta. <»a. penned i 1 ""
