Strength figures[edit]

The "strength" section of the infobox needs fixing by someone who knows the #s. Primergrey (talk) 05:46, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I blanked the section until it gets fixed. Primergrey (talk) 05:48, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The figures for New Britain and the Allied figure for New Ireland are already referenced in the article. If you have a concern with these figures, please explain. Nick-D (talk) 07:20, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

My concern is that there are New British troop totals on the Japanese side of the box. Primergrey (talk) 07:50, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

As Rabaul is on New Britain, I don't see why that's a problem? Nick-D (talk) 07:58, 24 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
