In this weeks video, we're at the site where the South Pacific World War II Museum will be constructed. It was also the site of the No.2 PT Boat base during World War II. Additionally, it was also where torpedoes were serviced and made ready for delivery to ships, submarines and of course the PT boats prior to them heading off on patrol missions in the Pacific.

At the Battle of Kolombangara, a Japanese torpedo almost blew the entire bow off the ship. An amazing job given where the repairs were done. US Archives Video. | South Pacific WWII Museum | Facebook
