Mission Brief
Red Arrow — the division that spent more days in combat than any other in WWII.
The 32nd Infantry Division — 'Red Arrow' — holds the remarkable distinction of spending more days in combat than any other U.S. Army division in World War II, accumulating 654 days of front-line fighting in the Pacific Theater. Deploying to Australia in early 1942, the division was one of the first American units to take the offensive against Japan, launching grueling jungle campaigns in New Guinea that set the template for Pacific island-hopping warfare.
From the nightmare jungles of Buna and Sanananda in New Guinea to the liberation of the Philippines, the Red Arrow division fought through some of the most punishing terrain and conditions of any theater in the entire war. Heat, disease, monsoon rains, and a fanatically determined enemy made every yard of jungle a desperate struggle. Their campaign across New Guinea and Luzon remains a testament to American endurance.
For Pacific Theater WWII enthusiasts and serious collectors aged 12 and up.
