This cuckoo has a breeding range that extends from the Himalayas eastwards to Myanmar, China and northern Thailand. Further south it is a vagrant or migrant in northern India, Sri Lanka, Malaysia and Sumatra, it feeds on insects and other small invertebrates, including ants, caterpillars and bugs.
The Asian emerald cuckoo grows to a length of about 18 cm . The adult male has an iridescent dark green head, upper parts and upper breast, a white lower breast and a green barred belly. Bare skin round the eye is orange and the beak is orange/yellow tipped with black. The adult female has coppery-green upper parts, rusty brown crown and nape and green-barred underparts. Both sexes show a white band on the underwing when in flight. The underparts of the juvenile male lack the white lower breast and are more heavily barred. The voice is a “chweek” uttered while flying, and various whistled twitters.

Pan Asian troops have been inserted in Kanagawa because of the rumor that US troops were their way to Tokyo with the objective to make sure no American soldiers were left on Japanese soil. Scouts and small platoons were placed in buildings to scout for any American activity and to prevent enemy forces to secure the area. Platoon 36-B discovered what might be US troops in the Takashi tower and a special ops team have been sent to the tower for searching.
