Men Who Served with Courage and Distinction In World War II
Part I
WHEN World War II commenced, in 1939, the New Guinea Volunteer Rifles occupied an inconspicuous place in. the British military organisa tion. Armies in Europe were preparing to take part in the greatest struggle in human history. In New Guinea, at the other end of the world, a few hundred men —mostly veterans of World War I, who had resolved to maintain their war time knowledge and sense of discipline, in case of emergency—gripped their old
rifles a little more firmly, and went on with their simple training.
But a little more than two years later, a major front of World War II had been opened in the Southwest Pacific, and the NGVR were now in the front line. The Japs had over-run Southeast Asia, and were striking savagely southwards, at Australia, New Zealand and Fiji.
The NGVR never fought as a unit— they never got the chance. The Japs came smashing into New Guinea long before the Allies could organise any real resistance there. The NGVR became in volved merely as a series of small sec tions, in Rabaul, Lae, Salamaua and Wau, mixed in with the few Australian forces who were there when the Jap anese arrived. They played their part as well as they could, especially in Rabaul; but their story did not really commence until well on in 1942.
Then, as the Americans came across the Pacific from the north-east, and the battle-seasoned Australian divisions ar rived from the Middle East, resistance stiffened in the Southwest Pacific, and we began to fight back. There suddenly was a demand —more urgent every day —for men with military training, who * knew the country and the natives. They were needed for a score of services— for scouting and guiding, controlling transport and directing labour, operating small boats and showing raw white men how to deal with tropical conditions.
It was then that the men of the NGVR really came into their own. They were invaluable —and Americans and Aus tralians made full use of them.
F <OR some reason, the Australian Army authorities seemed never to look with favour upon the NGVR—no high officer ever gave to the little unit the high praise that was its due. Even the records of the NGVR were not kept faithfully—when we sought the full roll, in order to publish it, all sorts of ob stacles were placed in our way by the Brass Hats, and when we pressed the matter, we were told that the records had been lost.
With great trouble, we have collected the following list. From one source— which we cannot disclose, otherwise an official would be punished by typical Australian bureaucrats—we obtained a “mainland” list that is complete; and to that list we have added Rabaul names supplied to us from time to time by readers. We do not vouch for its ac curacy. Some names probably are miss ing, and some of the men named herein possibly were not members of the NGVR; but, in the absence of official help, it is as nearly complete as we can make it.
In these lists, the surname is given first, then the Christian names, then the address or next-of-kin, and then the man’s military number and rank. The following contractions are used: Rfn, rifleman; pte, private; 1/cpl, lance- cor poral; and so on.
