History
12th Cavalry; the 1st Squadron, reinforced, would seize and mop Ndrilo on April 1, 1944. In preparation for the landing on Koruniat and Ndrilo, which had earlier been suspected of harboring naval guns, PT boats and a rocket boat as well as the customary artillery took the islands under fire. Bombing and strafing by the RAAF and heavy mortar fire from Mokerang Point also preceded the assault, transported in native canoes. No Japanese were found on Ndrilo, and the next day the 1st Squadron returned to Lombrum Point.
