You could well be right Richard, I live in north queensland and during the war there were 600,000 yanks stationed in the area. Mareeba was the airfield where the aircraft came from, for the battle of the Coral Sea. The site is still off limits due to the huge amount of cordite still on the bottom of the ocean. It is ony about 50 miles off the coast. The aussie army was also stationed around the area for the New Guinea campaign.
