 A couple hundred yards north of Upper Tulgas across the bridge was the main village of Tulgas, where most of the Allied troops were stationed under Captain Robert Boyd.Farther north was the Canadian field artillery battery, with two three-inch guns, as well as an American squad with a Lewis machine gun.Farthest north was another small village, Lower Tulgas; here the Allied field hospital was set up in a log hut, almost unguarded.
