Sample Book Insights:

#1 The Japanese admiral who was in charge of the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941, and the assault on Clark Field in the Philippines in 1944, was sent to Manila to fix the tactical situation by whatever means available. He focused on carriers, which were his biggest threat.

#2 On October 25, 1944, nine planes flew from Mabalacat and headed east over the vast and lonely Pacific. They were hoping to die for their admiral and the Emperor. They sighted a group of American escorts protecting the beachhead at Leyte, and attacked.

#3 The American military became aware of the suicide planes in January 1945, when they saw how many ships they could destroy in one mission. The Special Attack Corps was integrated into the defense plan of Okinawa in March 1945.

#4 The Japanese tactic of the banzai charge was too costly, and the meet them at the beach theory was replaced on Iwo by let the enemy come to us. On Okinawa, the Japanese used heavy artillery as an integral part of their weaponry, and the Americans were literally torn to pieces.
