landing of 10000 marines and sailors who will occupy the important Yokosuka naval base simultaneous ly with MacArthur's arrival at Tokyo with 7500 or more airborne troops The naval entry had been scheduled originally for Sunday but was called off at the last minute by receipt of MacArthur's orders to postpone the occupation plan for 48 hours because of typhoons around Japan (It was not
