USA reacts

The USA declared neutrality, but at the same time began to review its armed forces.  There was a preponderance of naval and air forces in the Pacific, but the U.S. army, particularly the armoured forces, was woefully ill equipped.

IPC resources were: 12 in Eastern USA.  10 were spent on two Armoured Corps for 1^st October. Other IPC (Western USA 10, Philippines 3, Alaska 2, Hawaii 1)  were stockpiled to develop industrial capacity.

The most interesting map is that of the Pacific deployment:

The map shows from top left to bottom right: 1 submarine flotilla, 1 fighter group, 1 battleship flotilla, 1 carrier flotilla, 1 infantry corps.
