Grand Strategy Hinges On Singapore In Allies War Plan
The article argues Singapore’s defense is pivotal to Allied strategy in the Pacific. It links Singapore, the Philippines, and the Persian Gulf oil network to a broader fight against Japan and Germany, highlighting submarine and air power as keys and stressing the need to balance Atlantic and Pacific commitments while recognizing Singapore’s potential fall would threaten supply lines and the “new arsenal of democracy” in Africa. It notes Manila as a submarine base, the role of U S submarines, and the aim to aid China and Singapore to prevent Japan from severing the Burma road and life artery of China. It also covers Red Cross efforts and military nursing reserves supporting war needs.
