General Douglas MacArthur, commander of Pacific forces in world war
II, viewed the battle of the Bismarck Sea as a disaster for the
Japanese and a triumph for the Allies. In that great air-sea
confrontation, U..S and Australian air forces proved that air power
could be decisive in preventing the resupply of ground troops by
sea. Months of torturous warfare in the jungles of New Guinea had
left Japanese troops vulnerable to disease and starvation. In the
end, Allied airmen were able to break Japan's grip on New Guinea
and end its treat to Australia though the innovative and aggressive
use of air power. MacArthur's strength lay in a dedicated and
courageous band of airmen who could attack enemy ships from all
direction at any time.
