History of the CHINA OFFENSIVE 1945 Battle Streamer
In April 1945, Japanese forces launched a significant offensive near Paoking, China, facing resilient resistance from the Chinese Sixth Army and effective air support from the Chinese American Composite Wing (CACW). This marked a turning point as the Chinese forces, supported by the CACW, halted the Japanese offensive and initiated a powerful counterattack in May. The Tenth Air Force later joined the Fourteenth Air Force, providing crucial air support. By VJ Day in August, Japanese forces had withdrawn from central China and the Chinese coast, symbolizing the triumph of Allied forces in the Asiatic-Pacific Campaign, with the US Air Force playing a pivotal role in securing victory.
