Overview:

The Marine's 3rd Battalion from Colonel William Whaling's 1st Marine Regiment led the way west of the New Britain landing sites towards the airfields at Cape Gloucester. By D+2, the Marines encountered the first serious resistance in the vicinity of Hell's Point, known to the Japanese as Cape Eboshi. Between the 3rd Battalion and the airfields was 2 Company from Colonel Sumiya's 53rd Infantry Regiment. While these two forces engaged, the Japanese attempted to flank the Marines. Protecting the Marine left flank were men from the 1st Battalion. A reinforced Japanese company, supported by heavy machine guns and battalion artillery pieces attempted to dislodge the Marines from the tall kunai grass.
