The Pacific War Uncensored: A War Correspondents Unvarnished Account of the Fight Against Japan by Harold Guard, John Tring
Requirements: MOBI Reader, 4.6 MB
Overview: Harold Guard became a war correspondent quite by chance, after he had been invalided out of the navy following a submarine accident. Thereafter, working for United Press, he gained a front row seat to many of the most dramatic battles and events of the century. In March 1942 Guard arrived in Australia, having narrowly escaped from Japanese forces invading Singapore and Java. His dispatches from that disastrous front prompted one observer to comment on the crisis days when everybody except Harold Guard was trying to hush up the real situation. At the time he was acclaimed by the Australian press as being one of the top four newspapermen covering the war in the Pacific. Over the next three years Guard was to have many more adventures reporting on the Pacific War, including firsthand experience of flying with the US Air Force on 22 bombing missions, camping with Allied forces in the deadly jungles of New Guinea, and taking part in attacks from amphibious landing craft on enemy occupied territory. He also traveled into the undeveloped areas of Australia s northern territories to report on the construction of the air bases that were being built in preparation for defending the country against the advancing Japanese.
