COMMENTARY NOTES CONCERNING HUDSON HILL'S MAP B
 

Hill has a preoccupation with there being a connection between one of the tunnels near the South Shore Road, and Wheeler Battery. There was such a tunnel, but it was nowhere near  the South Shore Road, or accessible from it. Its entrance was only a short distance below the cliff edge, approximately three hundred feet of sheer cliff above the road level. Hill's drawing does, though, well illustrate how time and again a group of Japanese defenders could survive most offensive fire direct into a tunnel mouth, necessitating more direct approaches.
