Operation Long Jump (Jock Miles WW2 Adventure Series Book 2)

The Allied invasion of Papua New Guinea begins. Badly.

Alternative history takes center stage as Operation Long Jump, the second book in the Jock Miles World War 2 adventure series, plunges us into the horrors of combat in the rainforests of Papua New Guinea. As a prelude to the Allied invasion, Jock Miles and his men seize the Japanese observation post on the mountain overlooking Port Moresby. The main invasion that follows quickly degenerates to a bloody stalemate, as the inexperienced, demoralized, and poorly led GIs struggle against the stubborn enemy. Seeking a way to crack the impenetrable Japanese defenses, infantry officer Jock finds himself in a new roleâ€”aerial observer. Heâ€™s teamed with rookie pilot John Worth, in a prequel to his role as hero of Grassoâ€™s East Wind Returns. Together, they struggle to expose the Japanese defensesâ€”while highly exposed themselvesâ€”in their slow and vulnerable spotter plane. The enemy is not the only thing troubling Jock: his Australian lover, Jillian Forbes, has found a new and dangerous way to contribute to the war effort.

Jock Miles' WW2 adventures continue in Grasso's Operation Easy Street.
