Hide Profile

Ekonia Tekoro was born in the Duke of York Islands, New Britain, in 1916 or 1917. He was serving as a Methodist pastor on Bougainville when the Japanese invaded the island. Not being a native Bougainvillean, he was a marked man. However, he eventually linked up with the Coastwatchers and reached the safety of the beachhead at Torokina.
