Hailing itself as the "most bombed newspaper", this military publication was printed in the jungles of New Guinea, hence the title.
The headline announces: "INVASION ON ! " and: "ALLIED ARMIES LAND ON NORTH COAST OF FRANCE" with related text. The back page has: "Landing In Europe Preceded By Terrific Hammering Of Enemy Positions".
Terrific to have a D-Day report in a military newspaper.
Four pages, 10 1/2 by 15 1/4 inches, great condition.
