Combined with China calling to sell their debt and Japan needing to cover their own expenses how much
of this combined 2.45 Trillion will not be rolled over?

US military comes to the aid of Japanese earthquake victims...

US forces aid Japan rescue operations
Tue, Apr 19, 2016 - ‘DOING OUR BEST’: Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe defended his government’s efforts amid complaints by people who have been left homeless and with little to eat

The US military yesterday joined relief efforts in southern Japan for areas devastated by two powerful earthquakes as local rescuers combed through debris looking for 10 people still reported missing. Authorities said at least 42 people had died and nearly 1,100 were injured in the two quakes that hit the region near Kumamoto City late on Thursday last week and early on Sunday. Rescuers were redoubling search efforts on the southern island of Kyushu, where many areas were cut off by landslides and damage to roads and bridges. Forecasts of heavy rain, which would make land and collapsed buildings even more unstable, added to the urgency.

A US Army UC-35 aircraft yesterday landed at a Japanese military base near Kumamoto. Nine people died in the first, magnitude 6.5, earthquake, while the second quake, which was revised from an initial reading of magnitude 7.3 to magnitude 7.1, killed at least 33 people. “There are still missing people, so with the help of the US forces, we would like for the operations to go into effect as quickly and smoothly as possible,” said Colonel Masahiro Sugawara of the Joint Staff Council of Japan Self-Defense Forces.

The US side, whose Air Force, Navy and Marines bases are home to about 50,000 troops in Japan, was to provide aerial support from other regions in an effort to feed and care for tens of thousands of people seeking shelter. The US military played a large role in rescue and relief after a March 2011 earthquake and subsequent tsunami in northeastern Japan. This time, Japan asked for help with airlifts into the area, said Jacqueline Hearne, a US Army public affairs officer. “We are glad that we are able to support in any way the Japanese government needs us,” she said.

The disruptions caused by damage to buildings and roads, and by stoppages of electricity and water supplies, were reverberating beyond Kyushu, as manufacturers suspended output and transport links were snarled. Japan’s Nikkei 225 Stock Average fell 3.4 percent to 16,270.89, although for various reasons, including a surge in the value of the yen after weekend talks between major oil producers on freezing oil output ended without an agreement. Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe defended his government’s handling of the crisis, as some of the 180,000 evacuees complained of having only rice balls and bread to eat. “We are doing our best,” Abe told lawmakers when challenged by the opposition over the government’s handling of the relief effort. “We are striving to improve living conditions for the people who have sought refuge.”

Death toll rises to 42 in series of Japan earthquakes
April 18, 2016 -- The death toll has risen to 42 people after three quakes rocked southern Japan late last week, on the southwestern island of Kyushu.

The tremors struck the Kumamoto prefecture within little more than 24 hours: a 6.5-magnitude late Thursday, a 5.3 early Saturday and a 7.4 later Saturday. The first quake left up to 10 people dead in what seismologists now believe was a foreshock leading up to Saturday's temblors. A total of 478 tremors have been recorded since Thursday, the Meteorological Agency said.

Up to 11 eleven people are known to be missing with many more possibly buried in the rubble in the region. Some people have returned home, but about 110,000 remain displaced in 100 evacuation shelters, with the government working to get food and blankets to residents. There were about 250,000 without water, 100,000 without gas and 39,000 without power in Kumamoto.

About 30,000 rescue workers, including 20,000 troops traveled to the region to help local firefighters and police in search and rescue efforts. They reportedly arrived Saturday morning. Rescue efforts are being hampered by heavy rain in the region, which has already experienced significant mudslides as a result of the seismic activity.

Tsunami warnings were initially issued after the quakes, but were later lifted. Japan's Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga said the damage caused by the earthquakes was substantial. Seismic activity is commonplace in Japan and much of the Asian Pacific Rim, which is positioned on the so-called geologic "Ring of Fire," where subterranean tectonic plates converge.

OK... you don't just "dump" T-bills. Japan/China just don't BUY any more T-bills.
they also present the T-bills they own to the USA matured T-bills.
In addition, they just don't buy any more government securities.
