Jap Plan for Six Invasions of the American Mainland
A 1943 picture magazine map, found by Seventh Air Force engineers, outlines six invasion routes to the United States. Routes include attacks via Aleutians to Alaska, a Pacific sweep to California via Hawaii, a New Zealand coastal thrust, a Nazi drive through Iceland to Chicago, Britain's fall with a transatlantic strike to New York, and a South Atlantic path to New Orleans aided by internal fifth column networks. The map notes internal collaborators but omits a Panama Canal capture plan.
