Overview:
Originally the plans for the capture of Viru Harbor had called for Lt. Brown’s platoon to attack the small village of Tombe on the east side of the harbor as a distraction while the main body under LTC Currin would then attack the village of Tetemara on the west side of the harbor. However, after the discovery of Lt. Brown’s small force on 29 June, Currin decided that the Tombe force should be augmented with a second platoon under Captain Walker. Making a stealthy approach, it turned out that the Japanese at Tombe were apparently unaware of the Marines, eve after being warmed two days previously.Attacker: American (USMC) (Captain Walker's Detachment, P Co., 4th Raider Battalion)
Defender: Japanese (Elements 1st Btn, 229th Infantry Regt)
