Forrest Bryant Johnson, in his book Phantom Warrior: The Heroic True Story of Pvt. John McKinney's One-Man Stand Against the Japanese in World War II, describes the battle in enormous detail. He suggests that McKinney killed well over 100 enemy soldiers, but that his commanding officer reduced the number so as not to be accused of exaggeration. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.22.72.125 (talk) 19:20, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
