How did the americans mark the areas for artillery strikes during the battle of okinawa

Japanese military objects, despite being carefully disguised, were easily detected by comparing a series of sequentially shot images. Thus, the progress of construction of Japanese defensive structures was monitored, new artillery and mortar batteries, the location of reserves, wire and minefields were revealed. Pictures of the next military installations were immediately sent to the headquarters of divisions, corps and armies, as well as to artillery and flight units for the proper planning of artillery fire and air strikes. It was found that there are four operating aerodromes in Okinawa - Kaden, Matinato, Naha and Yontan, where Japanese fighters and transport planes land every night. March 31, 1945, the day before the start of the American offensive operation, Japanese sappers destroyed these airfields.

Explanation:

separation of powers, therefore, refers to the division of government responsibilities into distinct branches to limit any one branch from exercising the core functions of another.   the intent is to prevent the concentration of power and provide for checks and balances.  

the traditional characterizations of the powers of the branches of american government are:

* the legislative branch is responsible for enacting the laws of the state and appropriating the money necessary to operate the government.

* the executive branch is responsible for implementing and administering the public policy enacted and funded by the legislative branch.

* the judicial branch is responsible for interpreting the constitution and laws and applying their interpretations to controversies brought before it.

forty state constitutions specify that government be divided into three branches:   legislative, executive and judicial.   california illustrates this approach; "the powers of state government are legislative, executive, and judicial.   persons charged with the exercise of one power may not exercise either of the others except as permitted by this constitution."

while separation of powers is key to the workings of american government, no democratic system exists with an absolute separation of powers or an absolute lack of separation of powers. governmental powers and responsibilities intentionally overlap; they are too complex and interrelated to be neatly compartmentalized. as a result, there is an inherent measure of competition and conflict
