The Allied victory left only one remaining Japanese stronghold on New Guinea, Sanananda, which would fall two weeks later.[3] General Douglas MacArthur had given Eichelberger the order to "Take Buna, or don't come back alive", which one biographer would describe later as "the absolute nadir of [MacArthur's] generalship."[4]

Rather than containing a timer, each weapon had a radar that would trigger a detonation as soon as signals indicated that it was within 60 feet of its target.[10]

If 10:00 arrived without a surrender, the final attack would begin and the Germans would be destroyed.
