"Look At These Australian Rabbits": Why A General Betrayed His Own Army

The true story of the Kokoda Track in 1942 is not just about the heroic Australian militiamen who stopped the unstoppable Japanese invasion force.

Why were the brave Diggers of the 21st Brigade—men who survived the "green hell" of New Guinea, malaria, and relentless combat—called cowards by their own Commander-in-Chief? In this video, we uncover the shocking political cover-up and the infamous "running rabbits" speech delivered by General Sir Thomas Blamey at the Koitaki parade ground. Discover why General Douglas MacArthur's arrogance cost brilliant tacticians like Brigadier Arnold Potts their careers, and how 200 heavily armed, exhausted Australian veterans came within seconds of a massive mutiny.
