What is MAG-23 Guadalcanal

"The book-based solitaire air war game, MAG-23 Guadalcanal, provides a non-traditional means by which to learn and inculcate history, the fabric of nations and thereby, the fabric of humanity. We can never over-estimate history as an elixir in making Marines, in winning wars or in preserving a nation."
-- Arnold Fields, Major General, US Marine Corps (Ret.)

Courage and determination eventually lead the Marines to overcome Japanese forces and achieve victory.
