The Battle of Finschhafen was part of the Huon Peninsula campaign in New Guinea during World War II and was fought between Australian and Japanese forces. The fighting took place between 22 September and 24 October 1943 following the landing at Scarlet Beach, which was followed by a two-pronged advance on Finschhafen as the Australian 20th Infantry Brigade advanced on the town from the north, while the 22nd Infantry Battalion drove from the south, having advanced from the landing beaches east of Lae. After the capture of Finschhafen, the Japanese forces in the area withdrew towards Sattelberg where they sought to hold the Australians before launching a counteroffensive, which subsequently threatened the landing beach. This attack was repelled by American and Australian forces, with heavy c

  • Битва при Финшхафене была частью кампании на полуострове Хуон во время Второй Мировой Войны и велась между австралийскими и японскими войсками. Бои велись с 22 сентября по 24 октября 1943 года после высадки десанта на Скарлет-Бич, за которой последовало двустороннее наступление на Финшхафен. Австралийская 20-я пехотная бригада наступала на город с севера, в то время как 22-й пехотный батальон наступал с юга, продвигаясь от места высадки к востоку от города Лаэ.

Эта атака была отбита американскими и австралийскими войсками, причём японцы понесли тяжелые потери. После этого австралийцы перешли в н (ru)
