Description

Campaign Series - The Battle for Wau

Discover the gripping story of the Battle for Wau in this meticulously researched book. Based on a detailed analysis of the battlefield, it reveals the strategies and tactics that led to victory and showcases the power of determined leadership in turning the tide of battle.

In 1942-1943, the Australian Army engaged in a series of commando actions to defend against the Japanese in the Wau - Salamaua area of New Guinea. This book highlights the significance of the Australian commando operation against Salamaua in June 1942, hailed as 'the perfect raid'.

As the Japanese reinforced their troops at Salamaua in January 1943, they launched a daring operation to capture Wau. Against all odds, a small Australian company of infantry, led by the courageous Captain Bill Sherlock, held the Japanese advance at bay for a crucial 36 hours. This heroic stand allowed reinforcements to be rushed in to defend Wau and ultimately changed the course of the battle.
