An Invasion Not Found in the History Books

I was sent a piece of information I had not seen before concerning some archival documentation arising from WW II.

The story concerns plans for an invasion of Japan stored in the American Archives since they were made.

Apparently this information has been around since 1987.

I wonder how many others out there have heard of this and or read the resume?

I was fascinated to think about what COULD have happened had the two atomic bombs NOT been used on Japan at the end of the war.

What if the invasion planned by the military of the time had gone ahead?

It all makes fascinating reading and people can read an exerpt for themselves at:

On the same site at a slightly different location there are more fascinating bits of reading that can be found:
