Ferrying U.S. Supplies on New Guinea U.S.

Ferrying U.S. Supplies on New Guinea U.S. Soldiers, using an improvised cable-operated ferry-boat, move supplies across a jungle river near Saidor on New Guinea in the South West Pacific. The boat, which can be quickly assembled, is constructed on three small assault rowboats. American and Australian jungle fighters joined forces at Saidor after a campaign which gave the Allies complete control of the Huon Peningula on Northeastern New Guinea and wiped out the bulk of a Japanese Force of 14000 men.
