I'll add Rabaul. If I have my information straight, yesterday was the anniversary of the Japanese assault on the Aussie base there in 1942. Had this all planned out and forgot to post a tribute...
Off to check the notes to see how bad my memory really is these days.
EDIT: I was close! Today is the anniversary! January 23rd, 1942 marked the beginning of the Battle of Rabaul.
