Quote HistoryQuoted: A bit more information on that: https://history.army.mil/books/wwii/MacArthur%20Reports/MacArthur%20V1/ch14.htm As the day of formal surrender drew near, all available troop transports of the Far East Air Forces and dozens of the huge Skytrains and Skymasters of the Pacific Air Transport Command were massed at Okinawa to airlift the first occupation forces to Japan in the greatest aerial movement of the Pacific War. On 26 August, General Eichelberger transferred the Eighth Army Command Post from the eastern coastal plain of Leyte to Okinawa and prepared to lead the vanguard forces of the 11th Airborne and 27th Infantry Divisions onto Japanese soil. At this critical juncture, however, a typhoon raging through the Japanese Home Islands caused a delay in Japan's final preparations to receive the occupation forces and resulted in a two-day postponement of the preliminary landings, originally scheduled for 26 August. The first American landings in Japan were made at 0900 on 28 August by a small airborne advance party of 150 communications experts and engineers. Deplaning at the large navy airfield at Atsugi, some twenty miles southwest of Tokyo, the daring little group fell immediately to the task of setting up the communications and other operational facilities for the swarms of four-engined planes that would bring the 11th Airborne Division to establish the American airhead in the Atsugi area. This advance group was followed three hours later by thirty-eight troop transports carrying protective combat forces and necessary supplies of gasoline, oil, and other equipment. The main phase of the airborne operation began at dawn on 30 August. The first plane, bearing a regular forty-man load, touched the runway at 0600. Practically every three minutes thereafter throughout the day, American planes landed on the huge Japanese airfield, gliding down with clockwork precision and without a single mishap. By evening, 4,200 combat-equipped troops of the 11th Airborne were on the ground and strategically deployed to protect the airhead against any eventuality. It was a great, though calculated, military gamble. The American elements, outnumbered by thousands to one, were landing in a hostile country where huge numbers of enemy soldiers still had access to their arms. The occupation plan was predicated upon the ability of the Emperor to maintain psychological control over his people and to quell any recalcitrant elements. It was doubtful that the majority of the Japanese people would disobey the Imperial command to surrender peaceably, but the possibility that certain dissident extremists would forcibly oppose the occupation despite all orders had to be carefully considered.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Still beats landing in the actual invasion plan if it had gone off. IIRC, in talking with the Japanese generals after the war to find out their defense plan of the home islands, they had correctly identified which landing sites the US would use. Everyone expected huge numbers of casualties- somewhere I've read that the US gov still has 1945 dated Purple Hearts in stock, since they cranked production of that medal to the max.... Thankfully that never took place. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I'm gonna buy a Cloud Defensive but same body. Inline? Offset? SBR? Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: What's the go-to mloc mount for surefire light bodies? Going on my 10.5 Mk4 railed SBR with a can. Scout lights? I like Arisaka or Arson Machine. Both are sponsors, I'll freely admit, but the Arisaka gets a lot of love from all sorts (Flannel Daddy, the T.Rex folks, Milspec Mojo, etc.), so maybe the edge to Arisaka for larger community support for the product? Bobro Engineering recently released one, too, that you can control the angle on. I don't have experience with it, and they're also a cola sponsor, full disclosure. I'm gonna buy a Cloud Defensive but same body. Inline? Offset? SBR? I am using the inline Arisaka on mine. |

But if not using lazer inline mlok may be able to fit between 9/3 rail and 12 rail. Maybe... I have two of the arisaka inline and really like them because they offer 3 setting of sideways adjustment so you can get it just right.

I use an inline because that's what I got from the swag table from Arson, and I make it work. YMMV. |
