Über diesen Titel

In this gripping episode, we delve into the strategic objectives set for Bougainville during World War II. The mission was clear establish a vital beachhead and construct airstrips to enable American aircraft to neutralize Japanese airfields at Kahili, Buka, and Bonis. However, the Marines faced a daunting enemy force, with 21,800 Japanese troops stationed at Buin alone. Leading the defense was the formidable Lieutenant General Haruyoshi Hyakutake, a familiar foe to the Marines from their previous encounters at Guadalcanal. His main force, the 6th Division, posed a significant challenge to the invading forces. Join us as we explore this critical chapter of military history. - Summary by John C.
