Seventeenth Army (Japan)
The was an army of the Imperial Japanese Army during World War II.
==History==
The Japanese 17th Army was formed on May 18, 1942 under the Japanese Eighth Area Army of the Southern Expeditionary Army Group for the specific task of opposing landings by Allied forces in Japanese-occupied Solomon Islands. It was initially headquartered on Rabaul and participated in the New Guinea, Guadalcanal, and Solomon Islands campaigns of the South West Pacific theatre of World War II.〔Smith, ''Bloody Ridge'', p. 25.〕
After General Hitoshi Imamura took over command of the Japanese Eighth Area Army the 17th Army was responsible solely for the Solomons, primarily on Bougainville.〔Hayashi, ''Kogun'', p. 224-225.〕 It was trapped on Bougainville and cut off from reinforcements and re-supply during the Bougainville campaign (1943-45), and was forced to live off the land, hiding in jungle caves for most of the rest of the war.〔Gailey, ''Bougainville''.〕
