Captain Martin Clemens (rear centre), a ‘coastwatcher’ on Guadalcanal, provided intelligence to Allied forces in advance of the battle for the island. The men with him are members of the Solomon Islands police force. (1942) [2833×2281]
The courage of Clemens to operate behind enemy lines like that was enormous, not to mention the courage of the other coastwatchers, most famously Jacob C. Vouza.
