Operation Olympic was the first phase of Operation Dawnfall which was designed to occupy Japan, It was supposed to take place in November 1945 on the Kyushu island in southern Japan.  The plan included 14 army divisions in the initial landings alone, an armada of 400 destroyers, 24 battleships and a staggering 42 aircraft carriers. It was all based on an aphibious landing in three diferent beaches: at Miyazaki, Ariake and Kushikino. The weakness of this operation was the location, Kyushu island was the only one that was in conditions for an invasion of these characteristics. So the japanese succesfully predicted it, they were ready to use all of their force to defend the island with the Ketsugo plan. As a result, both sides had estimated that the casualties would be huge. Finally the invasion never took place as the atomic bombs were dropped in Nagasaki and Hiroshima making Japan surrender.

Things like food collection and raising children were whole tribe activities, not solely up to the parents. Life was more communal.

What is true about using multiple sources of information on a topic?
notka56 [123]
Sources are used in a paper to show what ideas inspired you and whose theories you would be using and you cite the sources in order to avoid plagiarism. If you don't have sources, your paper will not be valid and you could get accused of plagiarism. The more sources you use the better but you should keep in mind that they need to be important for the paper and used with a purpose and not just to increase the number of sources.
