Fromm, Joe | April 14, 1945 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on England and the pacific war. The official announcement of British naval participation in the pre-invasion bombardment of the Ryukyu Islands is encouraging news, for a group of top-ranking officers in the American navy have been trying to exclude the British from the Pacific. It is an open secret in diplomatic circles that one of the United States delegates to the Quebec conference in September 1945 proposed that the Pacific campaign be almost wholly an American undertaking and that the British navy be confined to the Indian Ocean or at most be assigned a decidedly minor role in the Pacific.
