US in WW2

Kung bright child ang gusto,mundo'y ingatan mo.

The US tried to help in rebuilding Japan by sending in people.

The SCAP was an American military group that helped in reconstructing Japan.

Their biggest impact was their suggestion of the new constitution, 'The Diet' (based on the German constitution)

The US also helped in providing defense.

Without having the government to bother about paying for defense, the money could be focused on rebuilding.

During the Korean War, Japan also profited from the U.S through their exports. Mainly military goods. It was approximately 2 billion US dollars that they gained.

General Patton was stationed in many places during the war but his most valuable role was stationed in Africa chasing the Infamous Desert Fox, Rommel.

It all depends which countries uniform you're after, though most uniforms at the time were 4 pocket wool tunics, with standing collars (sort of shirt style), wool/cotton shirt, wool trousers, ankle boots with leggings/putees. * If you're British then your wools are brown * American also brown * German feldgrau (Fieldgrey) * Austro-Hungarian also feldgrau * Russian light brown * Italian grey or tan (I'm not sure on Italians) * French are bluey grey, but not fieldgrey I hope this has been of some help.

1. U.S. soldiers used M1 Garand, Thompson M1, M1 Carbine.

   U.S. planes most prominently used were Vought F4U Corsair.

   Landing ships were LCTs, LSTs, and LVTs. (Landing Craft Tank, Landing Ship Tank, and Landing Vehicle Tracked)

The allies principle strategy, that ultimately won them the war, was opening up the war to be fought on multiple fronts. What this means is that Germany would have to fight the allies from multiple directions. The German's blitzkreig (lightning war) strategy made them very difficult to take them on directly. However, by opening up the Germans to have to defend against both the French side and the Russian side (and eventually the Italian side, once they had been taken), meant that they would have to spread out troops to fight in multiple areas.

Yes, Doolittle's bombing raid over Tokyo raised hopes for an American victory in the Pacific. The bombing raid occurred on April 18, 1942. The US survivors landed in China.

The basic idea of the island hopping strategy was to block the Japanese from getting any further in their plans for invading the Dutch East Indies and other South East Asian countries and they had plans to take as many islands as they could which had the capability of sustaining an air plane runway or runways. They also wanted bases for their forces. The main efforts consisted of sea attacks on the islands first to soften up the Japanese or kill them. Then they did amphibious landings with the Marines. They would send in Army personnel after the Marines opened the way. The construction battalions came in to make the airfields or repair existing airfields. Now this explanation sounds so simple. No way was it easy for them. The more islands they conquered the harder it became at the next island.

There were many bases where the WWII US Army trained. With the beginning of the draft in 1940 the Army cranked up its division creating process. Initially the army reckoned it would take 200 divisions to fight the war, but in the end wound up creating about 90. Some of these were National Guard divisions, called into active service beginning in 1940. Others were "reactivated" WWI divisions, or brand new in army history. Low numbers - below 25, were "regular army" divisions. 26 to 50 were National Guard divisions, and above fifty were wartime formations, some of which had been in WWI, when these high number divisions were called "National Army" divisions.

Each division had its own base, where it did its training. These were mostly in the south and west. The weather was generally better in the winter, allowing year round training, and horrible tracts of undesirable land were plentiful and cheap. It took a year for a formation of new soldiers to shape up into what the army thought was ready for combat. It took TWO years to retrain a National Guard division, and weed out the political hacks holding officer positions because they were cronies of their states governor.

As the US began sending some divisions to the Pacific, and to North Africa and Italy, some bases got a second division and started over again with training. The army shut down its division-creating process in 1943, and no more new divisions were made after that. 90 divisions turned out to be none too many, in fact, just barely enough, to fight a world war.

Some camps trained infantry replacements, who went overseas and through a system of Replacement Depots ("Repple Depples") to take the place of men killed or wounded. By late 1944 the army decided "replacement" might cause unhealthy thoughts and started calling these men "reinforcements".

Some bases the army still has today got their start as WWII training bases, such as Fort Bragg, NC and Fort Polk, LA. Fort Jackson, SC is still a basic training center, but it was started during WWI, and greatly expanded for WWII. Camp Blanding near Jacksonville Florida was the training base for two divisions, now its a state National Guard Camp. Fort Lewis, WA was an existing army base also, and is the army's other current basic training facility.

The desert training center in the Mojave Desert was created early in WWII. The Field Artillery school was, and is, at Fort Sill, OK. The Armored Forces training center was already established at Fort Knox, KY.

World War Two was on an (almost) global scale, and there was fighting somewhere every day. There are naval battles (like the Battle of Leyte Gulf) and there were land battles like the D-Day invasion or the Battle of Arnhem. There were battles to take significant bridges and battles to take out significant airfields. There were battles for significant towns like the Battle of Anzio, and there was the final, last-gasp effort by the Germans to push the Americans out of France called the Battle of the Bulge. There was the Battle of Britain, where hopelessly outnumbered British Spitfire and Hurricane aircraft defended the country against the entire might of the German Luftwaffe and held them off long enough to get some war materials into production. There was the Battle for Singapore, the battle for Iwo-Jima with the famous flag photo. There was a battle for a number of critical Dutch bridges that almost caused the total destruction of Holland, as written about by COrnelius Ryan in his excellent book A Bridge too Far. There was the whole North Africa Campaign where Rommel was finally defeated by British general Montgomery after many, many battles in just about every town from Casablanca to Tabruk.

'theme's' is an interesting concept during the 1920s both the democrats and the republicans tried to repesent themselves as pro-business, the belief of rugged individualism and lassiez faire, both had conservative and liberial wings and both were generally opposed to granting black civil rights. The democrats were on the whole more likely to support tarrifs but the main difference was in foreign policy and prohibition. In the 1920 election, Warren Harding represented a change away from the largely unsuccesful reforms of Roosevalt and Wilson's foreign policies. Many argue that the 1920 presidential election was the end of the progressive era. Wilson had been pushing for entry to the league of nations, something that seemed to conflict with middle America patriotism. The United States had fought a war of independence against Britain, a war against slavery in the south and imperailism in world war one. The United States did not want to be subject to a foregin power(s) again. Harding's 'return to normalcy' struck a bell into the hearts of ordinary American's who saw Harding as representing small town America(the majority of the population still lived in rural areas and small towns in the 1920s).

Scandal soon broke out in late 1921 over the corruption of the Harding adminstration and to spite economic recovery the Republicans suffered a large defeat loosing much of their majority. To spite Harding's popularity his death in 1923 allowed Republicans to blame the scandal on him and lead to his Vice president, Calvin Coolige to victory. The 1924 election is an interesting one because of the conflict in the democratic party. The party was in a real sense a coalition of two party's first a regional southern party and second a big city pro-immigrant liberal party. The party's sharp division can be seen in the fact that it took over 103 ballots before a candiate could be nominated and the faied denoncement of the KKK. The democrats had another problem, senator Robert M. LaFollette had split from the republicans and forming a new progressive party. The new party meant many liberal democrats ended up supporting LaFollette especially after the conservative, John W Davis received nomination. Coolidge won by a landslide victory with 382 of the electoral vote.

The Supreme Commander Allied Powers was the title of the head of the occupation government. From Japan's surrender on 2 September, 1945 until April, 1951 when he was succeeded by General Matthew Ridgeway. The occupation ended in 1952.

On the other hand... Imagine that Truman had NOT dropped the bomb(s). What would have happened. An enemy, which had attacked the United States, was refusing to surrender and refusing to make guarantees that it would not try to take over the Pacific again. Japan wanted to just pull back, hope the the Allies would let them build up again, and try again, learning from their previous mistakes. The Allies didn't want to fight that war again, and demanded that Japan surrender. Under Japanese terms, surrender would only have happened when an Allied soldier held a sword to the throat of the Emperor. At the end of the war, the Japanese knew that they had lost. They were holding out for better terms of surrender. They knew that the Allied forces would loose about a million soldiers if we attempted to attack Japan, and they knew that the American soldiers would have a serious problem killing all of the women, children and old people who would be using swords, pitchforks, handguns and whatever weapon they could find. But we would have been forced into such a battle if the Japanese refused to surrender. It is estimated that dropping the two atomic bombs killed fewer of the Japanese than would have died in a military invasion. If we HAD invaded Japan, would Truman have been later tried for treason for allowing a million soldiers die once it was found out that he could have won the war by dropping two bombs and without killing any more Allied soldiers? He was faced with a terrible dilemma. But he had to be loyal to HIS people. If Truman had not used "the bomb" it would have been a national disgrace when it was discovered that he had secretly spent over a billion of dollars to create a weapon that might have stopped the war sooner.

They wanted to fortify the islands to turn them into a giant defensive chain. The islands were only lightly, if at all defended so they were easy to sieze and occupy. the Japanese thought that if they heavily fortified all of the islands then an enemy, such as the United States, would tire of fighting long before they had reconquered all of the islands and gotten close to Japan. What they didn't realize was that it wasn't necessary to reconquer every island. The United States only attacked the more important ones and bypassed the rest. Once they were cut off the troops on them could not do anything so they were no threat. this was called island hopping. Michael Montagne

Your lease may contain termination provisions that define the conditions upon which you may "get out of your lease" early. For example, it may require you to provide a suitable replacement tenant (or sublet) or forfeit some equivalent of one month's rent.

In any case, you can notify the landlord or your intentions and see if you can mutually agree to terms for vacating in an orderly fashion.

You can always notify the landlord and leave, knowing that they will want to collect some amount of unpaid rent and probably other damages. However, they have the burden of proving you owe anything (according to the terms of the lease), and the burden of finding someone to replace you so they can start collecting rent again. If you move out and someone else moves in right away, the landlord's "damages" are very limited, and the are not likely to be able to force you to pay for the entire lease you broke.

Which of what? I can't answer your question if it's vague like this.

In 1963, the Navy was searching for a new plane to serve in the Carrier Onboard Delivery, or COD, program. The plane they used had a 300-mile range. The Chief of Naval Operations ordered a feasibility study of using the C-130 on aircraft carriers. Lt. James Flatley III, a fighter pilot attached to [i]USS Forrestal,[/i] landed a Marine Corps KC-130 refueling variant on the Forrestal in October 1963. He performed 29 touch-and-go landings, 21 unassisted full-stop landings (no tailhook on the Hercules!) and 21 unassisted (no catapult) takeoffs at weights up to the aircraft's maximum rated weight. For his efforts, Lt. Flatley, who would later be promoted to Captain, was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross. As for the Hercules "Super COD" project, the Navy decided that even though the plane was clearly capable of landing on a carrier, using it in regular service was inviting disaster and went with a smaller airframe.

An important result of the Marshall plan was that it marked the beginning of America's regular involvement in Europe.
