We have a map of the solomon Islands:

our record:  http://catalogue.nla.gov.au/Record/2078222

New Georgia 1:20,000
Visuvisu Pt
CICSOPAC sheet 142.

"compiled and reproduced by Mapping and Reproductoin Section, First
Aviation Engineer Battalion, USMC."
seems to be dated 1943:   "J 152-P125-6-11-43"

Presumably this was part of a series covering a portion or all of the
New Georgia group.

Does anyone have any other maps in this possible series of New Georgia,
or an index?
Numbers i nthe margin suggest there is a sheet 129 to the west and 128
to the southwest at least...


Any help identifying extent of series appreciated!


Brendan
