By way of explanation, I created this article (like the parallel Pacific Ocean Theater of World War II) because the South West Pacific Area (command) article deals with a Allied formation/organisation. That arrangement was inadequate for the many links pointing to it, beacuse it didn't deal with the the Japanese/Axis side of the story. This article is intended to deal with the various campaigns and battles, including the Axis side of them. Grant65 | Talk 08:27, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Germany
The Kriegsmarine saw some action in the region. Of note is the tale of U-862, as well as the German auxiliary cruiser Komet and other vessels. Notwithstanding that they were almost certainly resupplied by Japan, it would be interesting to learn if any actual joint operations did occur. knoodelhed 21:38, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
