Description
A propaganda leaflet produced by the Far Eastern Liaison Office (FELO) during the Second World War. This leaflet is written in Japanese and was distributed to New Guinea and the Solomon Islands. It is accompanied by an English translation of the text. The message states that the Japanese troops in New Guinea are receiving little support from the Air Force as an indirect result of the increased strength of the Allied Air Force. It also says that the Japanese troops in New Guinea are receiving poor support from the Navy because the Navy deserted them in order to concentrate on the battles in the Solomons.
