Map of Okinawa

An American map titled "Newsmap for the Armed Forces: Monday, June 4, 1945." The map of Okinawa shows railroads, roads, rivers, relief, airfields, airstrips, and the battle line as of May 28, 1945. Printed text on this map describes the flanking of Shuri by the Seventh Infantry Division. The map of the Pacific theater shows international boundaries, describes the Chinese capture of Nanning, and locates, in red, the areas covered on the other four maps. The map of the area near Foochow, China shows roads, rivers, and highlights the path taken by Chinese troops from Foochow to Ningteh. The map of Tokyo shows railroads, roads, rivers, and points of American B-29 Superfortress attacks. The map of Mindanao, in the Philippines, shows roads, rivers, relief, locates Japanese activity in the island's northeast corner, and points of American activity. Printed text on this map locates the 31st, 41st, and Americal Infantry Divisions. Printed text and drawings on the back describe the process and effect that propaganda leaflets dropped on enemy controlled areas can have on the enemy. This section, titled "Paper Bullets," reads in part: "Together with constant pressure by our guns, tanks, planes and men, the leaflet weapon attacks the enemy's morale with ideas, news, facts and fears."
