How long will a soldier in Europe remain there
The War Department says it is impossible to state exactly what will happen to soldiers in combat units left in Europe. Some troops will remain for occupation duty, some will be returned to the United States for further duty, some will return for discharge. Not all will receive the same treatment because their services will not entitle them.

Early Opinion Favoring Rejection of Jop Peace Offer
Washington reports indicate the United States, Britain, Russia and China near a joint reply to Japan's surrender proposal. The likely stance is to turn down the offer unless Hirohito is guaranteed to remain on the throne, with unconditional surrender still on the table if demands are not met. Talks remain secret and coordinated among the four powers as Allied forces prepare broader capitulation terms.

It references Margaret Maultasch, Countess of Tyrol, cited by Sir John Tennie and Feuchtwanger in The Ugly Duchess, with life dates 1318 to 1369 and legendary portrayal as powerful and evil.
