Cape Gloucester- The Green Inferno
by Bernard C. Nalty
On the early morning of December 26, 1943, the Marines positioned off the coast of Japanese-held New Britain gazed at the towering silhouette of Mount Talawe as dawn approached. The tranquility of the morning shattered as flames erupted from the guns of American and Australian cruisers and destroyers. With hearts steeled for battle, the men of the 1st Marine Division awaited the signal to launch their assault on the Yellow Beaches near Cape Gloucester in the northwestern region of the island. - Summary by Bernard C.
