亞包之戰後逃出生天的澳軍“雲雀支隊”官兵
——戰時澳軍“雲雀支隊”的命運(續二)

1942年1月23日，日軍大舉進攻亞包的當天，澳軍雲雀支隊僅僅抵抗了幾個小時，就撒丫子作鳥獸散，因此，在戰場陣亡的澳軍官兵人數並不多，僅僅60人左右。雖然澳軍並無詳細具體的撤退計劃，也沒有什麽組織，但大體上還是知道要往新不列顛島的西邊跑。因為西邊距離新幾內亞島最近，此時那裏還是澳軍的後方基地，日軍還沒有占領那裏。因此，隻要到達那裏，就算是逃出了生天。

別看這些雲雀支隊的官兵在抵抗日軍進攻時表現並不咋樣，但腳底抹油的本事還是有的，這也算是這支部隊的一大優點吧。除了東奔西突奪命而逃的路途中有40來人病餓而死，140人左右被日軍截擊後集體屠戮，800多人眼看走投無路，又不願意被日軍再次集體屠殺而投降成為戰俘之外，還是有327名官兵，在第22步兵營營長喀豪漢(Howard Hammond Carr)中校的率領下，因腳底抹的油比別人多，加上新不列顛島中西部地區，此時還有一些日本人尚未能控製的真空地帶，還有一些未及撤走之西裔種植園主及當地土著冒著危險，將他們藏匿並協助其最終以各種簡陋的渡海交通或工具，躲過日軍巡邏艇和軍艦的監視，逃至新幾內亞島，從地獄回到天堂。

下麵是這些逃出生天的澳軍雲雀支隊官兵的名單。從其所屬單位來看，基本上都是第22步兵營的官兵，加上部分的亞包要塞的炮兵或通信兵。看來，主力部隊官兵的身體素質還是比其他配屬之澳軍輔助部隊要好些。

這些回到安全地帶的雲雀支隊官兵，隨後有些人就被編進其它的部隊，有的在之後的對日作戰中獻身。因此，下麵名單的排列順序是：兵籍號(狗牌號)、軍銜、姓名、所屬部隊，而括號裏的，便是其日後之去向或對日作戰中死亡的日期。
