Roughly 60% of my infantry losses have been replaced, which is good. Rotating units keeps divisions in a reasonable shape, but it's clear on both fronts that a lull is in order after this to recover.

I'm curious how serious Japanese losses are. The Japanese have enough units to hold the frontline with a limited number of units per division in the west, but not in the east initially. The carpet bombing losses should also have hurt.



X Corps continues with its frontal attack towards Atsugi. Little room for any operational creativity here.



By now, First Army is really mopping the floor with the 354th Division west of Mobara and is making good progress towards Oiwake and the plateau.
