An account of the resource
"Copy of the first view of New Guinea as the SS Gen John Pope arrived" From "Darkroom Soldier": "The Wharf of Milne Bay, November 4, 1943. Here, in August, 1942, an attack by Japanese naval forces had been repulsed by Australian infantry defending this twenty-mile long bay. When Hill arrived here, his Fifth Air Force contingent spearheaded Allied forces preparing to attack Japanese defensive positions along the New Guinea coast -- the first step in taking the battle to Japan. Because his camera was still in his baggage in the hold of the USS General John Pope, Hill salvaged this photograph by an anonymous photographer. Background: long low building among palms is the Red Cross Recreation Center." ("Darkroom Soldier" caption authored by George Venn)

"The dock area at Milne Bay" From "Darkroom Soldier": "Milne Bay Wharf. Because there was no campsite for Hill's squadron when they arrived on November 4, and because commanders wanted to release the USS General John Pope to return to the States, Hill's squadron off-loaded their gear onto the Van Heust, a Dutch inter-island freighter. For two days, they lived on the ship and slept on the deck, then on November 6, 1943, they finally off-loaded onto this dock and went ashore to set up their quarters in the mud."

To eliminate Japanese snipers in the area, many such coconut palms had been topped by the machine guns of Australian pilots." ("Darkroom Soldier" caption authored by George Venn)

From "Darkroom Soldier": "Trade Bilum.

The ivory and green twine may be a bush product created from pandanus, a yucca-like plant, though the uniform weave suggests a commercial twine available from a local trader. A round, woven, bi-colored (half brown, half green) loop forms the handle, and two eyelets that slip over two knotted knobs form the closure." ("Darkroom Soldier" caption authored by George Venn)
