	Manchurian Legacy: Synopsis
		Kazuko Kuramoto was born and raised in Dairen, Manchuria, in 1927, at the peak of Japanese expansionism in Asia.
		Dairen (Port Arthur) was an important colonial outpost on the Liaotung Peninsula because the train lines, established by Russia and taken over by the Japanese, ended there.
		When Kuramoto's grandfather arrived in Dairen as a member of the Japanese police force shortly after the end of the Russo-Japanese War in 1905, the family's belief in Japanese supremacy and its "divine" mission to "save" Asia from Western imperialists was firmly in place.

		The battle was fought near the small village of Panipat, in the present day Indian state of Haryana, an area that has been the site of a number decisive battles for the control of Northern India since the twelfth century.
		The battle marked the foundation of the so called Mughal or Mogul empire in India - the word means Mongol and alludes to the Turko-Mongol origins of Baburs and his officers, although the majority of his troops would probably have had been of mixed Central Asian descent.
		The other significance of the battle is that it marked the beginning of large scale use of fire arms in Indian warfare as artillery is used for the first time in india.

	CHAPTER I: Korea, Case History of a Pawn
		The campaigns set in motion by the invasion of South Korea later were characterized as a "limited war." The fighting was deliberately confined in geographic terms, political decisions placed restrictions upon military strategy, and none of the belligerents, with the exception of the two Korean governments, used its full military potential.
		Erupting from the rivalries of great nations, the Korean War was greatly influenced by domestic conditions rooted deep in the history of Korea, and by the topography of the peninsula where it took place.
		Stalin also reminded the President that the Liaotung Peninsula, upon which Dairen and Port Arthur are located, was part of Manchuria and thus within the USSR military zone.

	Japan Is Not an Air Power
		It is most unusual to find all the squadrons in a regiment—which corresponds roughly, very roughly indeed, to the American group and the British wing—made up of the same type of plane.
		Air units stationed in China are under the army commanders in charge in the particular area in which they operate; Manchuria-based ships are directed by the Kwantung army staff from its headquarters at Dairen, the big Japanese port wrested from Czarist Russia 35 years ago.
		The biggest Japanese carriers are the Kaga, a 27,000-tonner originally laid down as a 39,000-ton battleship and altered following the 1921 naval limitation treaty among Great Britain, France, the United States, Japan and Italy; and the Akagi, also a 27,000-tonner.

		This statement is indicative of the lingering effects of a lifetime of being fed propaganda and being oblivious to the true nature of Dairen.
		I think Kuramoto’s story is one describing the powerful nationalist sentiment generated among a Japanese population in Manchuria desperately seeking an identity and justification for their being.
		Her whole life she is led to believe that Dairen is her home, and she doesn’t have to be mainland Japanese to be a part of Japan.
