	Pacific War, Operation Downfall (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		OPERATION DOWNFALL, to be complete within one year of the end of the war in Europe, had two major components.
		The landings were to be by troops already in the Pacific covered by 34 carriers and by land based aircraft from Okinawa.
		Coronet was a larger operation than Olympic, but the landing on Kyushu, the southern island, was expected to be the more expensive because all of the homeland defensives would have been expended there and the promised replacements for Coronet would have been made industrially impossible.

		The operation is being further complicated because the blood circulation between the twins is unstable.

		The operation marks the first time surgeons have tried to separate adult craniopagus twins - siblings born joined at the head - since the operation was first successfully performed in 1952.

		Operators on the ship see video images sent back from the robot and may control its propellers and manipulator arm.
		There are probably more military submarines in operation than any other type of submarine, though it is difficult to obtain exact figures because navies are secretive about their submarine fleets.
		Their job is one of the most difficult assignments in the navy, for they must work in isolation for long periods, without much contact with their families, since submarines normally maintain radio silence to avoid detection.

		Sierra Pacific continues to use the line to bring lumber from the mill to the junction with the Union Pacific, operating as the Quincy Rail Road division of Sierra Pacific.
		The circumstances of Sierra Pacific’s operation of the Susanville-Wendel line are similar to those of SierraPine’s operation of the former Amador Central in that both lines serve another shipper in addition to the plant of the rail line operator.
		The size of Sierra Pacific’s lumber business in relation to the rail line, and the location of its mill on the line evidence that the primary purpose for obtaining the Amador Central was to maintain rail access to the mill, not to profit from railroad activities.

		The Philippine army is depending mainly on aerial attack from air force bombers and helicopters, as well as mortar and artillery shelling.

		John Wayne's troops, this time in the form of submariners, invade the islands of Hawaii-- drinking, fighting and alienating the islanders.
		Operation Pacific, set after the bombing of Pearl Harbor in 1941, sets in motion the idea of an American loyalty dealing with the question of Hawaiian amalgamation of both American territory and Asian people and the influences of both.
		Wayne degrades the Hawaiian's in Operation Pacific, threatening them with jail and prosecution if they do not immediately drop the charges they have brought against his submariners.

		Operation Pacific (1951) is a clever ploy to humanize and glorify American servicemen.
		Operation Pacific is clearly not a film meant to show the war itself.
		Obviously, Wayne's films set during World War II were meant to encourage and exalt the war effort, but nowhere does he use the props of children (and nuns) to manipulate and redirect the American public so effectively as in Operation Pacific.

	Operation Pacific (1951)
		Operation Pacific sees us venturing back into the Second World War and a film dedicated to the memory of those who served, and lost their lives, in the silent service - the submariners.
		The story starts on some island in the Pacific where Duke (gotta love the way they name the character after the man's nickname) leads a party that rescues a couple of nuns and some children from a fate worse than death (or at least the Japanese Imperial troops).
		Operation Pacific is not a great film, not even a great war film, but it is an enjoyable piece of matinee fodder that can bear repeated viewings with relative ease.
