Wiki.
Bismark Convoy Smashed!, also known as Battle of the Bismark Sea, is a Second World War 1943 Australian documentary newsreel film about the Battle of the Bismarck Sea on 2–3 March, an engagement which resulted in the claimed destruction of 22 Japanese ships, their crews and 15,000 soldiers. Actual Japanese losses were rather less, but still devastating.
It used footage shot by Damien Parer.
