Bombing Paramushiru signals shift in war goals
In a bold long range mission four motor Liberator bombers from the Aleutians attacked Paramushiru, the great naval base in the Kuriles. The raid crossed 1,500 miles round trip, started fires near harbor vessels, and suggested a wider plan for a projected war through 1949. The piece notes the strategic aim to shift from defense to offense, and that while Paramushiru may not recur soon, it marks the start of a broader campaign toward Tokyo as naval strategy adapts to longer war horizons.
