I have just purchased this book.

It was published in July 1944 following a visit to Guadalcanal by two members of the NZ National Film Unit who visited to shoot footage for newsreels. They also took stills.
The book includes this photo of LP2 in US service which I have not previously seen.

Note the two colour camouflage and the number 2610 on the closest Carrier and what appears to be 2601 on the back Carrier. Unfortunately the book was published on newsprint quality paper so the photos are not clear. As NZ did not build 2600 LP2s I'm not sure what the significance of the numbers are
