I have just finished reading a book from my local library . It had some interesting stories and facts . It is called AUSTRALIAN COMMANDOS and touches on Corregidor Subic Bay and the Philippines as well as the islands around New Guinea . It tells of Australian Coast Watchers , Australian Commandos and of the US Navy mainly operating out of Fremantle Western Australia . The Book is a part of the Stackpole Military History Series .

Thanks for the heads up on this book.
I have often heard of the Australian coast watchers but upon seeing your post about the book, realized that I know very little about them.
I will look for it.
Thanks

My pleasure beirutvet . I think the book fills in a few holes in the history of W W 2 in the pacific .
