Best Answer

During the Battle of Guadalcanal in August 1942 to February of 1943, approximately 100,000 soldiers fought in the jungles of the small island. Around 60,000 American soldiers were involved, with over 36,000 Japanese soldiers opposing them. It should not be overlooked that many sailors and airmen were also involved above and around the land-battle.
