The B.S. Crew (ePub)

The peaceful lives and the future of several generations of New Zealand families will be tragically altered by their active participation in the two World Wars.

During World War II, New Zealand was helpless against the threat of a Japanese invasion. Defense Minister Bob Semple, devised a naive but ambitious program to design a secret weapon, a tank that could be easily built over the chassis of a modest tractor-excavator, of which there were thousands throughout the country.

The massive arrival of North American troops to New Zealand relegated the failed project to oblivion. The ill-fated tank became the laughing stock of the whole world (lasting to this day).

During the bloodiest part of the conflict, a small group of soldiers from the legendary 28th Maori Battalion, along with Americans and Australians, were recruited for a suicidal mission, to infiltrate Japanese territory to destroy a strategic telecommunications facility on a group of islands near Japan that hid a secret concentration camp that did not appear on the maps.

Abandoned by their superiors, unknown to the world, their anonymous mission and sacrifice changed the course of world history as we know it.

Two officers tracking missing in action soldiers in the Pacific during WWII make an incredible discovery.

A secret that had remained hidden during more than 70 years; one that forever changed history.

THE COUNTRY NEEDED HEROES.

THEY GAVE THEM BACK HOPE.
