This week Seth and Bill take a look at Operation BACKHANDER, better known as the battle for Cape Gloucester that was fought from December 1943 through early 1944. The team examines the short but sharp fight executed by the jungle veterans of the 1st Marine Division as they endured yet another miserable, rainsoaked, hell hole of an island. Tune in and see what the team has to say about this oftforgotten fight.
