... that U.S. and Australian troops landed on Long Island on 26 December 1943? Source:
[1] "The occupying force, consisting of 150 men from the 592nd Engineer Brigade, 2 amphibian scouts and 33 men of the 338th Australian Radar Station, left Finschhafen during the afternoon and evening of December 25 aboard 5 LCM's, 3 LCVP's and 3 PT boats and the first men from the PT boats were ashore by 0200 on December 26" (p. 458)
Sure. That's the idea of the hook. Both ALTs are just re-phrasing of the original hook, and are quire acceptable.
