The 37th ID will start to apply pressure in the center of the X Corps front, to decrease pressure on the 31st ID so both divisions can advance to Atsugi.

On the other side of the river, 38th ID will mostly stay in reserve at the moment. Japanese opposition in the area is so strong that I'm very careful about making any offensive moves.



The 6th Marine Division will advance to Oiwake together with parts of the 1st Marine Division.

27th ID will support that advance by moving west from Mobara. 7th ID will keep stretching its front. I wasn't worried about counterattacks along the coast from the Boso Peninsula, because the primary road would allow me to move reinforcements in quickly.

The newly arrived 96th ID will move through Mobara as well to support 27th ID.
