It was indeed one of the forgotten theatres of WWII, like<BR/>Lapland and Imphal. Those link ratings are an interesting data set to look at. Never even heard of most of the top-rated ones. I wonder, do number of links related to number of posts by readers?BB-Idahohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01168862935045755393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7370534.post-1165748686053274512006-12-10T03:04:00.000-08:002006-12-10T03:04:00.000-08:0012 10 06Hey BZ:I never knew that stuff either.

I had no idea that the Japanese tried to take over those islands back then. But if we think about it, the islands are in the Pacific Rim and I guess they were trying to increase their sphere of influence. What I find most intriguing is that it took almost a whole year to eject the Japanese from the two islands due to weather?!!! How insane! Thanks for sharing this, because so many facts get lost to the subjective judgement of those who write history books.<BR/><BR/>As far as readership is concerned, don't worry about it. You write for you. I have really fallen off lately with all the familial stuff and I have also noticed a decline in my readership. However those that come to visit are usually the ones who were always my buddies to begin with, and I value what you all havta say before arbitrary blog readers;)Mahndisa S.

It’s a good history lesson for us all who did not know. History in school is often taught in general details but the smaller hidden details seldom are taught.Kiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15238096321864927594noreply@blogger.com
