Part of the Army/Navy Screen Magazine series, this film newsreel consists of several segments. The first, “Meet a Gyrene from Guadalcanal” features American Marine Albert A. Schmidt who helped defend his fellow soldiers while being attacked by Japanese forces on Guadalcanal, and apparently killed over 200 of the enemy. “They Fly the Aleutians” shows the activities of the air crews based in the Andreanofs Islands within striking range of Japanese held Kiska.
