The Kavieng massacre
a war crime revealed
by Raden Dunbar
"During the push southward in the Pacific by the Japanese during World War II, a large group of expatriate Australian men and German Catholic missionaries were trapped on New Ireland, many interned by the Japanese in September 1942 at Kavieng. The disappeared without trace in March 1944. The Australian Government commenced a largely secret enquiry into the fate of these missing civilians, discovering that all the Kavieng internees had been secretly murdered by their captors. The Japanese naval officers responsible for the Kavieng massacre elaborately concealed their embarrassing crime to mislead Australian investigations. This concealment was successful and delayed revelation of the truth until 1947"--Back cover.
