Pacific War & Indochina Wars battlefield expeditions for a new breed of war heritage traveler!

WAR HISTORIAN BATTLEFIELD EXPEDITIONS (WHBE) leads specialist expert-led expeditions to 20th century battlefields in the Pacific and Asia. WHBE specializes in:

• Pacific War (WW2 Pacific & Asia)
• First Indochina War (French War)
• Second Indochina War (Vietnam War)

We travel to some of the most historically significant, yet remote, and less traveled battlefields of the 20th century.

From lush tropical islands in the South Pacific to sweltering triple canopy jungle in Southeast Asia, WHBE takes you off the beaten path to some of the most remote and less traveled battlefields of the 20th century. We take you to the invasion beaches, put you in the foxholes, examine the relics of war, and hump through jungle in order to experience military history from a unique "boots-on-the-ground" experiential perspective that just cannot be obtained any other way than by being there and walking the original battlegrounds. Visiting these places is more than just sightseeing. When you experience firsthand the rugged hills, the dense fetid jungle and tropical climate of these battlefields, history comes alive. On our expeditions you will also experience the culture, customs, sights and sounds of the beautiful and vibrant countries we visit. Battlefield expeditions for a new breed of war heritage traveler and those who truly want to experience military history and walk the ground where battles were won, lost, and history made. It’s one thing to read the books, but quite another to actually walk in the footsteps of history!

WHBE regularly operates expeditions to Solomon Islands (Guadalcanal, New Georgia, as well as other WW2 heritage-rich locales in the Solomons), Okinawa, Vietnam, and other destinations in the Pacific and Asia.

The founder of WHBE is the grandson of a US Army combat infantry veteran of the Pacific War. He first visited the battlefields of the Pacific War in 2010 when he traveled to Okinawa for the 65th anniversary of the battle to follow in the footsteps of his then recently deceased grandfather.
