As usual with this series it is packed full of good clear archive photos, giving an excellent insight into the campaign … The variety of the images is fascinating and the limited visibility of fighting in a jungle is obvious from so many of them.
Military Model Scene 04/01/2016
New Guinea describes in archival photographs with accompanying detailed captions and chapter narratives the conflict between the Australian-American forces under General MacArthur in combating the tenacious Japanese first in Papua in 1942-43 and then along the entire northern coast of the world’s second largest island in 1943-44 to both isolate the Japanese bastion at Rabaul and pave the way for the American invasion of the Philippine Islands in 1944-45.
