- Farida_Force abstract "Farida Force was the name given to an ad hoc composite Australian Army force of six hundred and twenty-three men under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Eric Hennessy, commanding officer of the 2/6th Cavalry (Commando) Regiment which conducted an amphibious landing at Dove Bay, east of Wewak during the Aitape-Wewak campaign on 11 May 1945 in World War II. It was made up of troops drawn from the 2/9th Commando Squadron, 2/10th Commando Squadron, two 75mm guns of the 1st Anti-Tank Battery, one company from the 2/3rd Machine Gun Battalion serving as infantry as well as a platoon of machine-gunners from that unit, two detachments of mortars and other support elements.The force was transported to the form up point ten thousand yards off the landing beach in three vessels, the Swan, Dubbo and Colac, and from there they transferred to assault craft. The first wave went in to the beach at 08:34, landing slightly to the west of their assigned beach, and experienced no effective opposition. Minutes later the second wave arrived, carrying the rest of the commando assault force. Advancing inland to establish a beach-head, the squadrons encountered very little resistance, although there were signs of recent enemy departure. By 10.24 the beach-head was established and stores began flowing from the transports ofshore.Over the course of the next week and a half, the elements of Farida Force began patrol operations around the surrounding area and cut the Wewak road, before being placed under the command of the 19th Brigade under Brigadier James Martin on 20 May 1945.".
