Written and illustrated by the soldiers themselves — the men of the Front Line Forces — this account presents the raw, authentic voice of combat, detailing the daily triumphs, hardships, and camaraderie of American and Australian anti-aircraft crews fighting side by side under the South-West Pacific Command.\n\nFar more than a military record, this volume stands as a rare piece of wartime testimony, produced from within the heat of battle and suffused with the grit and dark humour that characterised Allied troops of the era. Its illustrations and prose, crafted by the very men who lived the experience, give it an intimacy and authority that no official dispatch could replicate. Published by Angus and Robertson in Sydney and London, it represents an exceptional document of Australasian military history — leaving the reader to wonder what other untold stories were forged in the smoke and noise of those forgotten Pacific skies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50572347932891,"sku":"2026100011362-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/1fa7f5a5-ba0a-4ea6-911e-1c314f673c10.png?v=1791166389","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100011362-secondhand-on-target-with-the-american-and-australian-anti-aircraft-brigade-in-new-guinea","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
