OPERATIONS ORDER:  Combined Fleet and 17th Army 

4 August 1942

The enemy thwarted our plans to capture Port Moresby
in May. We will accomplish this task overland. You 
must stage through Buna and traverse the Owen
Stanley's along the Kakoda Trail. With this
accomplished, Rabaul will be out of range of American
bombers and our forces will be capable of 
interdicting bases in Northern Australia at will.

Intelligence confirms the existence of an Allied 
outpost on the eastern tip of New Guinea.  It must be
eliminated.

Continue development of our new airfield on
Guadalcanal.  Its completion will further solidify
Rabaul's position and will allow us to project our
air power southeast in preparation for the capture or
interdiction of the New Hebrides and New Caledonia.

Failure will not be tolerated.
