No full textContents: defense operational policy; plan of execution; air defense; coastal defense; security; signal communications; information and propaganda; and supply. Although this "Battle Plan for the Kagoshima Sector" is dated 25 July 1944, it contains much valuable information. The organization of an area in the Empire for its defense against an invasion is developed in considerable detail. A partial answer to the question of how far the Japanese intend to go in waging "total war" is given by that section of the plan which provides for the utilization of civilians and reservists to assist and augment the military forces in construction work, air raid warning and defense, and in carrying out coastal security and defense activity. Also of interest to U.S. commands is this document's description of the methods by which civil and military authorities are to cooperate in security measures for the maintenance of order, and for the protection of important installations
