Sherrod notes, "This list does not include an estimated fifty to one hundred Navy casualties not members of the Navy Medical Coprs. These casualties were chiefly coxswains of landing boats and members of attached units such as air liason and Naval gunnery liaision. The reason for this omission is that the Navy casualty lists are not kept according to battles."
