Thanks!

Another newb here.

My son and I got 1942 last week and have been having a blast, but of course we have a few questions.  I apologize if the answers are somewhere in the rule book - couldn’t find them.

1.  How are hostile, but unoccupied territories conquered - can any power simply move into them in a combat or non-combat move?

2. If the last unit surviving combat on a territory is an attacking fighter I realize the fighter has move back to the friendly territory, but does the territory in question no belong to the attacker or still the defender?

Thank you.
