Re: WWII quiz thread

Australian troops liberated and disarmed a fair bit of the South Pacific shortly after the armisitice. Prior to that there were several POW camps in Australia proper.

In terms of occupation forces, this was a subject of some disagreement but eventually Australia became head of Commonwealth occupation forces. Initially they had responsibility for Hiroshima area, but later that was expanded somewhat.

OK, that was the easy part. I cannot find the answer to the actual question. Still looking though.
