ニュージョージア島の戦い
Following the capture of Enogai, Liversedge's force worked to improve the area's defenses, pressing several captured coastal guns into service, as well as other captured equipment including searchlights, machine guns, and mortars to secure the inlet. Elsewhere, to interdict Japanese reinforcements moving towards Munda, the roadblock that had been established about inland along the Munda–Bairoko trail, was held by US Army troops from 8 to 17 July until it was abandoned due to supply problems, increasing illness and tactical concerns. Meanwhile, the troops around Enogai undertook patrolling operations towards Bairoko Harbor, during which there were only a few minor skirmishes. On 20 July, Liversedge then carried out an unsuccessful follow-up attack on nearby Bairoko. After this, US forces remained in the Enogai area until the end of the New Georgia Campaign, undertaking patrols and gathering intelligence regarding Japanese reinforcements moving towards the Munda area.
