An airfield built to service the
missions near Lorengau. Extended by the
Imperial Japanese during
World War II. Consisted of a single grassed runway long x wide. A number of
revetments were constructed at the southern end of the runway. After the liberation of the airfield, by the
8th Cavalry Regiment during the
Battle of Manus, which was part of the
Admiralty Islands campaign, the airfield was not developed further.
Post war The airfield was abandoned after the war. The town of
Lorengau was extended to the west of the jetty on
Seeadler Harbour after the war, built on the cleared area of the airfield. The major road alignments follow the edges of the airfield. ==References==
