Week 305 - Operation Olympic - 100,000 US casualties in 60 days? - WW2 - June 29, 1945

Overview

The casualty projections for the planned November invasion of Kyushu, Japan are in... or are they? They might have been 'massaged' a little to sell the operation more easily. The fight in the field still goes on, though, with parachutes flying over Luzon as more American troops land, and an Australian advance on Borneo.
