Issue 30, 2021 On morning of 1 July 1945 hundreds of warships and vessels from the United States Navy, the Royal Australian Navy (RAN), and the Royal Netherlands Navy lay off the coast of Balikpapan, an oil refining centre on Borneo’s south-east coast. An Australian soldier described the scene: Landing craft are in formation and swing towards the shore. The naval gunfire is gaining momentum, the noise from the guns and bombs exploding is terrific … waves of Liberators [heavy bombers] are pounding the area.1 This offensive to land the veteran 7th Australian Infantry Division at Balikpapan was the last of a series amphibious operations conducted by the Allies to liberate areas of Dutch and British territory on Borneo. It was the largest amphibious operation conducted by Australian forces during the Second World War. Within an hour some 16,500 troops were ashore and pushing inland, along with nearly 1,000 vehicles.2 Ultimately more than 33,000 personnel from the 7th Division and Allied forces were landed in the amphibious assault.3 Balikpapan is often cited as an example of the expertise achieved by Australian forces in amphibious operations during the war.4 It was a remarkable development.

General Order No. 791 Horse Guards, S.W., 1st July 1861 Medical 1-1861 Much inconvenience having arisen from Medical Officers of Districts and Regiments making reports to the heads of their department, without placing the military officers in immediate possession of these reports, his Royal Highness the General Commanding­ in-Chief, with the concurrence of the Secretary of State for War, is pleased to direct that, whenever Medical Officers conceive themselves called on to make reports upon, or to offer suggestions concerning matters affecting the health of the troops, and sanitary condition of the locality in which they are stationed, to the head of the medical Depart­ ment in which they are stationed, they shall furnish duplicates to the officer in immediate command. guest. Protected by copyright. By order of his Royal Highness, The General Commanding-in-Chief. James Y orke Scarlett, Adjutant General." In this connection history continues to repeat itself and one feels that as the respon­ sibility for efficient supervision and for the remedying of sanitary defects rests on commanding officers and through them on subordinate commanders (para 95(c) Q.Rs 1961), as well as the fact that the responsibility for the health of the troops is that of the commanding officer at all levels, such reports by medical officers, should be addressed directly to the appropriate commander with copies to their immediate medical superior.
