Fifth book to arrive in 7 days. This one is by D M Giangreco and published by Naval Institue Press. It is about a hypothetical Operation Downfall, the Invasion of Mainland Japan that was divided into two separate landings Operation Olympic and Operation Coronet.. I am really looking forward to this as Olympic and Coronet are scenarios many wargames and wargamers have acted out. Scanning through the book, one of the chapters is titled ‘Half a Million Purple Hearts’ ! Looks promising and I shall start on it once I finish Frank’s Guadalcanal. Has anyone read Hell to Pay? Any thoughts?
