I am a teacher in Falmouth Mass and research war in New Guinea every spare moment I have.
Hi Janet. It's good that there are people around studying the more obscure theaters of the war. That was 3 year campaign so it was far from a minor theater, but its not one most Americans would even recognize as having happened at all. Sadly, there are many things about WWII that most people in America wouldn't recognize. >sigh<
