BETIO TARAWA ATOLL

The Yankee's will run into a hornets nest, our fortress is able to hold indefinately. Those are the words our regional comander Admiral Koga, sended to the supreme HQ in Tokyo. In reality most troops to reeinforce Tarawa have been expended on Bougainville. The promised air support destined for Tarawa has been wiped out by an american air attack on Rabaul. The naval force has been largely sunk in Raboul harbour aswell.
General Shibaseki, the island comander welcomes you.
