This monograph, except for the first chapter which covers operations of the Kwantung Army throughout Manchuria, deals exclusively with the eastern front under the jurisdiction of the First Area Army. It covers preparation for operations as well as the operations themselves. Aside from the Kwantung Army and the First Area Army, the units covered are Third Army, Fifth Army, the following divisions: 79th, 127th, 124th, 126th, 135th, 128th, and the 132d Independent Mixed Brigade. The monograph is the product of twelve former officers in the Japanese Army. All served in Manchuria during the brief. war that lasted from 9 August to 15 August 1945, all were taken captive by the Soviets, and all were subsequently repatriated to Japan. Each of the contributing authors has dealt with his subject separately, following a prescribed outline, and providing as much detail as was available to him through notes or memory. Please note this a high quality, carefully cleaned up of an archive document and while many efforts have been made to clean up these historic texts there may be occassional blemishes, usually reflecting the age of the documents and the contemporary typescript used at the time.
