Hasegawa Aircraft 1/72 Mitsubishi G4M2A Type 1 Attack Bomber Limited Edition Kit
The battle for the Philippines was devastating. Japan committed over half a million men to control of their acquisition. Facing them, combined, were a million and a half US soldiers and organized Filipino resistance fighters. Japan committed waves of obsolete fighters and bombers into the conflict, some as kamikazes, and ordered its infantry to hold out at all costs to no avail. Filipino/American forces drove the Japanese into the mountains and jungles or off the islands entirely. Over 330,000 Japanese soldiers died. Two years later, the Philippines were declared independent.
