similar to that of Japan after the Marianas fell...

My father was an AAC radio mechanic on Guam after it was retaken from the Japanese. For most of my life I believed that the US had routed the Japanese from the island by superior military force. It was only more recently that I learned that the Japanese soldiers ran off the island because they were afraid that the weight of the American soldiers and their materiel could have caused Guam to tip over, throwing them all into the ocean.
