Kings and Generals' historical animated documentary series covering the Pacific War week by week continues. After the Japanese Evacuation of Guadalcanal and their disastrous defeat at the Bismarck Sea, the Allies and the Japanese Empire discussed what their plans would be. Today, that calmness will finally be broken as Admiral Halsey and General MacArthur set out to carry out three naval landings at the same time: Nassau Bay; the Kiriwina and Woodlark Islands; and New Georgia, the bulwark of the Central Solomons. Thus, join us as we delve into the start of these important offensives, in another exciting episode of the Pacific War.

[@scottschreffler8798]

You said existing series would not become member exclusive.

[@KingsandGenerals]

@@scottschreffler8798 we had to either cancel the series or release the standalones for the members and the long episodes for everyone.

[@Ccdddttt]

Can’t believe we’re approaching 100 episodes, epic series!

[@jlvfr]

And it's still 1943!

[@JC-mx9su]

I always wait some more episodes to learn about ww2 in the Pacific Theater.

[@redschadow4887]

It's probably going to take at least 300 Episodes to cover the entire war in the pacific theater

[@cmachinist]

And 84 is actually an undercount. We're really on episode 91 due to prelude episodes 0.1 - 0.7

[@chrismartindale7840]

It was not a short war. We are going to get a lot more episodes. Don't forget, events are happening as they did in real time for people 80 years ago.

[@Therabidrabbit89]

Aussies and Yanks, Brothers in arms, we wouldn't have been able to fend them off back then without you guys, My Great Grandfather fought in WW2 and he always praised the Americans. Thank you

[@ToddAdams1234]

@@Hillbilly001AND like @dingonutz88 emphasized, the A&A team (Aussies and Americans) did fantastic jobs ind the Pacific theater and my grandfather was spending his time in the European theater. Only 2 things I know about my GF in war was that he met Eisenhower and survived the battle of the Bulge and got a medal from some action. I don’t know what action it was because he passed when I was 7 and my Dad nor anyone else ever mentioned anything about the medal OR anything else. Oh the stories that he could tell me now that I’m old enough to listen and remember.

[@Therabidrabbit89]

Good on ya lads, much respect 🇦🇺🇺🇸🤜🤛

[@Therabidrabbit89]

@@Hillbilly001 We still say it don't worry about that mate lol See if you can find a movie called Kokoda, it's about us Aussies in PNG and to be fair our boys wouldn't have managed to do what they did without the help of the locals (Fuzzy Wuzzies) we called em, because of their fuzzy hair, Legends of people the Papuans much love to them as well

[@blockmasterscott]

We got your back! 👍

[@doublepoet7852]

There is one thing the CCP does not every want to see because it knows it can’t defeat it. A unified and pissed off United States. The EOJ and Nazi Germany found out the hard way

[@billslocum9819]

Such great writing in this series, even the word balloons are gold. From 10:45 "For two hours the men waded and staggered through the swamp, laboriously dragging out their feet, sinking now ankle deep, now up to their loins in the foul slime; dragging out their hindquarters by slapping weapons crosswise on the reeds and getting a purchase on them." I feel like a kid again with this series, reading a Bantam War Book at 2AM on a school night, unable to sleep.

[@feemster8861]

Great books. I still have some of those.

[@drakependraig7083]

Well I just learned of books I had never seen before. Thank you!

[@Bob-tn5xn]

My grand father was with the 4th marine P co. Raiders and I'm delighted that you knew about the bio -luminescent algae ! They had secured native guides to navigate that area only to find out that the swamps were so horrific that the natives didn't even go there ! Being behind schedule they had to push all night and the native guides draped the glowing algae on their packs of the raiders so they could stay in line and not lose anyone ! My grandfather also carried a boys antitank gun which upon exit from new Georgia he threw into the ocean and claimed it was lost by "accident" the NRA american rifleman magazine did a story on the boys gun years ago and the centerfold photo is a picture of raiders and the one in the back of the line with the boys rifle over his shoulder is my grandfather alongwith popalka , sudro, mc ginty and Ross ! Ross was wounded early on in a rearguard action ! Thanks for the details it helps piece together alot of un awnsered questions that we can't ask anymore since they have all passed away !

[@Khookies-lp2lu]

Must be interesting to see stories you only ever hear bits and pieces of strung together and animated like this.

[@Bob-tn5xn]

@@Khookies-lp2lu actually I have a unpublished manuscript written by a C/P member before he died highlighting the new Georgia campaign ! My grandfather started telling me about the Raiders in 1973 and he lived till 2007 so I heard many a story , it's just nice to see others highlight their existance

[@jonbaxter2254]

Every time you zoom in on these islands, they become so much more rugged and confusing in geography. It was awonder anything got done in the days before scanners, GPS and internet.

[@simonbishop4160]

It’s a great resource. The lesser known battles in the Pacific are fascinating and shows the complexity & hard work involved in logistics needed

[@jaythompson5102]

Very interesting episodes you can see the Americans getting better and better at amphibious landings through the war. They became effectively masters of it by the end.

[@joeywheelerii9136]

Crazy to think how many would be done. The Army did dozens of em in the Phillipines campaign of 44-45

[@patrickblanchette4337]

What a blessed day for me! I got to go onto the USS Bowfin, Missouri, & USS Arizona Memorial with my family & then come home to watch this informative & interesting video!

[@Maverick0451]

Brilliant!! I've said it before and I'll say it a thousand times, this series is outstanding. It always brightens my day to know that I have a new episode of the Pacific War to enjoy at the end of the day!! Thank you as always for your brilliant content!!!

[@THEDAVILAK1]

This is pretty much all a person will ever need to know about the Pacific War. I can already see me coming back in a decade or two from now and watch this again. KaG you people are VERY appreciated

[@robbabcock_]

Thanks for another great installment! 🇺🇸⚔🇯🇵

[@tomriley5790]

My Grandad (who landed on Sicily and in Normandy) said he thought the Navy put the worst seamen in landing craft - "afterall their job was to run their ship aground :-)!"

[@LiquidfirePUA]

😂

[@williamromine5715]

It amazes me how difficult it must have been for the navigators to find their landing areas in the dark with all the small islands and inlets. They had none of the modern equipment of today. They are unsung heros of those operations. I don't see how they did it.

[@guyprovencal1742]

@Kings and generals, y’all have outdone yourselves once again. I eagerness anticipate each new installment. This is probably the most comprehensive and complete history of the Pacific Campaigns that I have ever seen. Phenomenal job!!!

[@hugod2000]

This is a brilliant series. I love the detail. Thank you so much for making it.

[@WilmerCook]

As and old history buff you channel makes my day! You guys do a VERY GOOD JOB~~~THANKS!!!

Amazing series !!!!! so well researched and produced .... 👍👍👍👍👍👍

As always thanks for the videos

[@cornishdiaspora918]

Just brilliant, thank you.

[@irishpsalteri]

I knew something was missing in my week. Thanks.

[@jamesfagan9818]

You intro reminds me of the Fight Club soap bar and I love it

[@somewhere6]

In retrospect, the grinding campaign through the Solomons and eastern New Guinea seems very slow and costly compared to the island hopping that came later. (mind you, even then, an operation like Peleliu was wasteful).

[@nathang5630]

What an amazing series! Keep it up!

[@davidnemoseck9007]

Wow. Didn't know we did all these little landings.

[@BlueyChandler]

Great detail and coverage of the battle of the Pacific.

[@royouyong2131]

Finally! The Allies are gaining new ground in the South Pacific. Glad to see the red border of the Japanese Empire being pushed back once more. I've been waiting for this since the end of the Guadalcanal campaign...

1943 tiene eventos y operaciones muy poco conocidos. Felicitaciones el equipo detrás de King and generals

[@parrot849]

A very complex operation indeed!

[@mouraborisova8558]

I understand much more about the fighting and the Japanese were not as much of a problem as the terrain. When the Japanese could use the terrain it like ge😢a bunch more men. I also have a better appreciation of the Zeebees. Man where those guys tough. Fighting the Japanese and then building landing strips. I guess the only thing that they didn't do was to make coffee.

[@Hartasek]

10:55 Sachen Bay -> Sachsen Bay (Sachsen = Saxony in German, this part of New Guinea was German colony before WW1)

[@jasonritchie8357]

Absolute incredible detail!!

[@napoleonibonaparte7198]

Join the Navy they said. See the world they said. All they see are black dots in the sky constantly.

[@28282222]

One occasionally hears the faulty claim of the importance of China in tying down Japanese infantry units to the Pacific fighting. This video perfectly highlights the fact such infantry would be (nearly) useless without airbases to project power, naval units to move them around and supply them. If China did collapse and Japan somehow magically moved anothe 1/4 million troops to the SW Pacific they would have been impossible to supply or keep from being by passed and isolated.

[@christopherg2347]

"D-Day training day."

[@LordBitememan]

Anybody know what the musical track is around the 11:00 mark?

[@TheWareek]

how could the raiders pass over a deep and "impassable swamp" obviously it was passable.

[@LoneWanderer727]

Halsey and MacArthur: "Operation Cartwheel will be the greatest combined amphibious assault operation in the history of the United States military!" Operation Neptune: 👀

[@zul4226]

How many allied ground foces casualties during conquest of new georgia ?

[@benmcccool0123]

Yoo new soundtrack dropped for the Pacific War Series. Personally though I’d hoped they used more aggressive soundtracks like Kyle McCuiston - Siege
