Within months of its greatest triumph in 1942, the Japanese
Imperial Army began to face the difficulties which would eventually
destroy it - overstretched supply lines, and inadequate industrial
support. Yet as the Allies grew steadily stronger and more skilful
during World War II (1939-1945), the Japanese Army and Naval
Landing Forces dug in to defend their conquests with a
determination which shocked all who fought them. In this second
book the author describes the deployments, organisation, uniforms
and equipment of the Army - including the dreaded Kempei-tai
military police - the naval infantry, paratroopers, special raiding
units, and foreign auxiliaries during the long and savage war in
Burma and the Pacific. His text is illustrated with many rare
photographs, three insignia charts, and eight highly detailed
colour plates.
