THE ALLIED NEUTRALISATION OF RABAUL: Japan's Major South Pacific Base -- Images of War
Details the 1943-1944 Allied strategy to neutralize Japan's Rabaul stronghold through fierce aerial sieges and targeted landings in the Pacific. Looks at how the American forces captured Japanese installations in Papua New Guinea before campaigning along Northeast New Guinea's northern coast ousting or bypassing enemy installations there. Yet, the main Japanese southwest Pacific bastion at Rabaul on the northeastern tip of New Britain, the largest island of the Bismarck Archipelago, remained. This Images of War volume recounts the strategy during 1943 and 1944 and the December 1943 amphibious landings by the US 1st Marine Division and US Sixth Army units at Cape Gloucester and Arawe, respectively, which successfully isolated the Japanese fortress and satellite bases. Contains 220 mono illustrations.1 vol, 192 pgs 2025 UK, PEN & SWORD
