Turn 37. Sep/Oct 1945. Allied #1.

PTO. Western Allies. Ground Strikes Summary. While allied ground strikes were modestly effective (got HQ-I and 2 or 3 other units) and resulted in 3 allied air units lost to 0 for the Japanese; probably the biggest benefit was that it forced Japan to use up a significant number of her fighters and AA fire defending against them. From that perspective the ground strikes achieved what the allies wanted them to achieve.

Sea of Japan. Though Japan passes they do fly two planes into the 4-box of the Sea of Japan during their naval air phase. Since Japan took a land they can't initiate, even if they wanted to.
