Location
Loctated at Embi on the eastern end of the Dobodora, nearest Oro Bay. 

Construction
US Army built four runways at this location: Embi No. 1, 2, 3, 4.

Today
Abandoned since the war. There are many horseshoe shaped gun emplacements around, clearly visible from the air. 

Frank Anderson recalls from 1970: 
"They were Phosgene gas bombs rusted and some were weeping, I reported them to the Australian army who destroyed them by blowing holes in them with what I took to be shaped charges as the holes were nearly square. They were also large 1,000 lbs bombs. There were also plenty of H.E. bombs in the area."
