abstract	Immediately after the attack on Pusan, the United States under President Harry Truman called for a "unilateral declaration of war on the Soviet Union". In response, Soviet premier Joseph Stalin called for the Soviet bloc to declare war on the powers supporting the United Nations peacekeeping force in Korea. In late September, forces from East Germany, Poland, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Romania, Bulgaria, and the Soviet Union itself invaded West Germany, and overwhelmed West Berlin. West German President Konrad Adenauer pleaded to NATO to assist against the invaders. NATO agreed, and France, Britain, and other countries sent forces to aid West Germany. Simultaneously, Soviet naval forces began bombardment of Japan, a major Allied naval base. In the naval battles between the Soviet Union and the Japanese navy, the Red Navy only lost one ship, the Vichrevoy. All lives on the Vichrevoy were lost, an event which would become a rallying cry for the Soviet war effort. Under general Peng Dehuai, the Chinese navy began the invasion of the Philippines, landing on the northern island of Luzon, putting Manila under siege. Chinese ships also bombed Darwin, destroying the territorial assembly building. From Japan American general Omar Bradley launched an invasion of the Kamchatka Peninsula, taking control of the port city of Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. The Red Army garrisons in the area then entered positions to defend the remainder of the peninsula. Other garrisons moved towards the Chutkotka Peninsula to board naval transports for one of the most notorious campaigns in the war: the Invasion of Alaska.
