"Disposition of Japan's 1,000,000 Troops on the Asiatic Mainland; 475,000 Best Men at Soviet Border; 500,000 Occupy Areas in China"

Those 19 divisions in Manchuko, plus 5 more on the way -- about 600,000 of Japan's "best men" -- might not be enough. And, they might need more tanks & planes too...

Large divisions for the era. In Europe, they’d probably be about half that size.
