Default Re: HOLLANDIA (JAYAPURA) in 1944

I know the Guineans hated the Japs, but I wouldn't have expected they were walking around with heads. It was a good thing to have these natives as friends. I read they were good scouts as well. What was Hollandia like at the time ? Were there stone or brick houses and something that would remind of a city, or was it a small place with bamboo houses and huts and mud on the roads?
