Seller's Description:
Very good. 40 pages plus covers. Small crease at bottom front corner. Illustrations. Maps. Sources. Errata. Colonel Hoffman is chief of the contemporary studies branch at the U.S. Army Center of Military History and the author of Once a Legend: "Red Mike" Edson of the Marine Raiders (Novato, CA: Presidio Press, 1994, 2002) and Chesty: The Story of Lieutenant General Lewis B. Puller, USMC (New York: Random House, 2001, 2002). Previously, as a Lieutenant Colonel in the Marine Corps Reserve, he was serving on extended active duty as the deputy director of the Marine Corps History & Museums Division. In the immediate aftermath of the fall of New Georgia, the Allies seized other islands in the vicinity, to include Arundel, Vella Lavella, and Kolombangara. Thereafter the South Pacific command turned its attention to the next major step in the encirclement of Rabaul. There were several options, but the final choice was a landing on Bougainville, the largest island in the Solomons group. A month later MacArthur's command would assault Cape Gloucester on the western end of New Britain. Rabaul would then be within range of Allied land-based fighter aircraft coming from two directions. Air power thus could neutralize the Japanese bastion and allow it to be by-passed. The scheduled D-day for Bougainville was 1 November 1943. For this operation, the 2d and 3d Raider Battalions were organized as the 2d Raider Regiment, with Lieutenant Colonel Alan Shapley in command. Lieutenant Colonel Joseph P. McCaffery took over the 2d Raider Battalion.
