This review addresses two books. The first is the book advertised that was written by Threlfall titled " Jungle Warriors". The second is the actual book that was delivered under the title of the first book."Jungle Warriors" (JW) is advertised as a book about the evolution of the Australian Army in WWII until it purportedly became the world's best jungle fighting military. Some ado is made about the exploits and experiences of that army in the jungles of SW Asia. So, I expected to be shown the evolution of the Australian Army and a recounting of how that evolution was applied to the jungle battlefields. About how an evolving Army became more efficient and effective. On the battlefield. Where it actually mattered. I didn't get it.That jungle efficient Army isn't presented in the book that is inside the covers. That book would have been more accurately subtitled: " A long and tedious recounting of the many manuals, publications, and communications, combined with the meetings and conferences related to training, coupled with the establishment, movement, and staff of various training establishments, with the addition of the various units that went through the training. And a continuous and boring repetition of these factors. With occasional brief references to how all of this was meaningful in combat. "JW assumes that the reader is familiar with the actual operations that the Army conducted. It provided no background to or recounting of those operations. So, the average reader is in the dark about the nature of the operations.JW could easily have been cut by 150 pages, due to repetition, and it still would not have addressed how the evolution of the Army's training was eventful in combat. As a history of training, it has some merit -- which I why I gave it two stars.It is not at all what it claims to be.
I had waited a long time for this book to come out and it was worth it. It details how Australia struggled to adapt from the tactics equipment and doctrine of the desert war against the Germans to close-in jungle combat against the Japanese. My hat's off to the Diggers who clawed their way up the Kokoda track in their tan desert uniforms in the rain with virtually no artillery because they had to go into action before they could develop doctrine, equipment and tactics to fight in an environment no one had forseen.While unprearedness was excusable, the author repeatedly raises questions about why the military leadership was so painfully slow to recognize the needs that were so evident to the units being comitted. Repeated suggestions were delayed or seemingly ignored. Even the requirement for long sleeve green uniforms took too long to implement.Still, the Australian army developed the training facilities and programs in the midst of ongoing operations, and made up for what they lacked in equipment with very sound and demanding training, a concept that they keep to this day.
Adrian Threlfall has done an excellent job with this book. It looks at the Australian Army's experiences in jungle fighting against the Japanese during World War Two. However, the book's focus is less on the campaigns and more on the evolution of the Army from relative novices in jungle warfare, to the world's leading experts. He traces the origins of Australian military engagement with jungle warfare back to the often ignored campaign to occupy the German colonial territory of New Guinea during the first year of World War One. Then the dramatic experiences of defeat in Malaya, the Dutch East Indies and New Guinea in 1942. Australia's Army had to learn to adapt from desert fighting against German and Italian forces, to the much harder conditions of Papua and New Guinea. The book details how the Australian Army made this transition, adapting training, tactics, equipment and mind sets to become the most effective jungle warfare troops in the world by 1944-1945. This set the Australian Army's standards for post-war campaigns in Malaya, Borneo and Vietnam. The book is well written and very detailed, and highly readable even for someone who is not an expert in military history. My only criticism is that insufficient attention is given to the role of the Militia units, who had to face the Japanese in the early years without the equipment and training of the AIF. Later, in Bougainville the Militia were to prove their worth when properly supported, and demonstrated they were the equal of the AIF troops. Well worth reading.
