July/August 1945. Allied #5. Surabaya, Dutch East Indies. Land Combat.

The land combat isn't. It's automatic. So why the ground strike? Why not at this point in the game.

July/August 1945. Allied #5. Dutch East Indies.

[rkr1958]

July/August 1945. Allied #5. Japan.

No turning to Japan. The US plays an O-chit and takes a super-combined. While this isn't specific to combat operations in Japan it allows the US armed forces worldwide to do what they need to do, as illustrate by the combat operations in the Eastern Med (i.e., Cyprus) and in the Dutch East Indies.

The CW, China and the Soviet Union all take a land.

In Japan, the Western Allies carry out three land combats, one of which is preceded by a ground strike.

July/August 1945. Allied #5. Sendai, Japan. Ground Strike.

Unsuccessful.

[rkr1958]

July/August 1945. Allied #5. Sendai, Japan. Land Combat.

The subsequent land combat is painful (for the allies), but manages to destroy the garrison and capture the city. So, in the grand scheme, it's consider a success.

July/August 1945. Allied #5. Kyoto, Japan. Land Combat.

A painful AND unsuccessful land combat.

[rkr1958]

July/August 1945. Allied #5. Osaka, Japan. Land Combat.

A successful and somewhat painful (massive number of attackers dis-organized) success.

[rkr1958]

July/August 1945. Allied #5. Japan. Reorg.

[rkr1958]

July/August 1945. Allied #5. Japan. Korea.

Kyoto is the only Japanese controlled city in Japan's home islands. Allied high command wants that city and they want it badly!
