If the men of the Seventh suc- ceed in pushing south along the north-south ridge line, they will have positions completely dominat- ing Okinawa’s major roads and two rail lines running southeast from Naha. Once the rear is cleared, Seventh would be able to mount artillery on the ridges and stymie Japanese supply for the Shuri line with directly observed fire.
