This Small Bay here, was the tiny one on which the Australians had to land on, this bay was the one that these had seen on the propaganda, but on the posters, the painter had made it look a heck of a lot bigger, so when the Australians reached here, they thought it was the wrong bay. It turns out that they were wrong, and that the artists for the posters had made it look pretty, so that the wives would let them go to war, and so that the men also wanted to go.
