Top Comments of this video!! :3
This is EXCELLENT. I have seen many videos about the Owen Stanley campaign (as it was called at the time). I also have several books about the campaign and I have walked the track, so I know what the terrain and jungle is like. I consider that this is the BEST explanation of the campaign that I have seen. I was surprised at how clear the explanation of the campaign was, so much better than many I have seen previously. Many kudos to "The Cove". I can only think of one criticism in the whole video. The pronunciation of the names, Ioribaiwa and Imita ridges and some other names. However, sorry, that is really nitpicking and the rest of the entire video is absolutely correct and is excellent. Yes, kudos to "The Cove".

Fantastic channel here, I'm glad I found it.
Is there any chance that your team could discuss the actions after the conclusion?
The Kokoda trail is very well covered in media, but I would love to have more information about the SalamauaâLae campaign and AitapeâWewak.
My grandfather served in the 2/5 Battalion and it would be nice to have something to share with my kids about his experiences.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. This video was recommended by YT and I eagerly watched, hoping to glean more information about where my father served. He passed away about 2 and 1/2 years ago, having hit the century mark. We were close but he only shared snippets of his experiences. Now, when it's too late, I want to know more. Let this be a cautionary tale. Lap up as much as you can from your elders. My dad was very fond of people who were interested and interesting. I strive for that.

As a Samoan living in this great country, every year I go to Anzac parades and always honor those who fought for this beautiful freedom country, and its everyone's obligation to continue to keep it safe, build this country, and remember those who gave their lives ... Also thank you for this informative video I love it when maps are included makes it more engaging in my opinion.
