December 7, 2023 by

The Pacific War, or War In The Pacific, started before Pearl Harbor. Japan warmed up ahead of time in China, Singapore, the Philippines. They already had an awful record of War Crimes before launching against Hawaii. My story begins with the Tizard Mission in 1940.

May 22, 2017 by
