估计不是被那个320MM的迫击炮炸死的,要是被它命中,人应该都炸没了。L.A Times采访了当时的一个老兵(William Lansford),他在当天下午在机场上看到巴斯龙完整的尸体,“炮弹是落在脚下,弹片打入他的下腹部,颈部和左臂”,最可信的目击者是厨师Roy Elsner,他听到几百码外的爆炸后,看到巴斯龙和三名士兵被命中倒地。

"The most credible eyewitness is Roy Elsner — the headquarters cook who had watched our machine-gun drills back in Pendleton and knew Basilone by sight. He said that when he and some buddies were hunting for their headquarters: "A few hundred yards from Motoyama Field No. 1 we heard an explosion, which caused us to look [toward the field]. We saw Basilone and the three guys who were with him fall."
Some time after noon I came across a group of blackened bodies on the edge of Motoyama Airfield No. 1. Company C was advancing half a mile ahead, sweeping the flat field clean, when one of the dead caught my eye. He was a thin, pallid kid. His helmet was half off, and he lay face up, arched over his combat pack, with his jacket torn back and his mouth open. I vaguely recognized someone I had known in that lean, lifeless face beneath its dusty stubble of hair.
Someone said, "That's Basilone."
I walked around and asked, "Is this Basilone?"
A guy I knew said, "Yeah. He was briefing his guys when a mortar scored a direct hit. It killed them all."
I sat and studied the dead man closely, but I didn't touch him. The shell had landed at his feet, sending shrapnel into his groin, neck and left arm. He looked incredibly thin, like an undernourished kid, with his hands on his stomach as though it hurt. This was the hero of Guadalcanal, the joy of a nation, the pride of the Marines and my friend, John Basilone.“
