Summary[edit]

Description Wrecks of the Japanese transport Yamazuki Maru and a Type A Ko-hyoteki class submarine on Guadalcanal, Solomon Islands, in May 1944. Yamazuki Maru was beached near Veuru (Tassafaronga Point) on 15 November 1942 and immediately after daybreak destroyed by U.S. aircraft, field artillery and the destroyer USS Meade (DD-602). During mid-1943, a Japanese Type A midget submarine, that had been scuttled by the Japanese in late 1942 or early 1943 300 m from the shore, was salvaged by the US Navy Seabees and placed near the ship. On 30 July 1944 the wreck was used as a target for tests of the TDR drone by STAG-1 based at North Field on Banika. The ship was finally scrapped in the 1950s.
