OPERATIONS ORDER:  Eastern Fleet: October 1943

Operation Buccanner is a Go, Your targets are either Sabang
or Port Blair the choice is yours 

Admiral Mountbatten has put his neck on the line to make it
happen over the strong objections of the US Chiefs of Staff

Intelligence indicates that the Japanese fleet
will make an appearance and will attempt
to halt our invasion with the aid of land based
airpower that the enemy has been attempting to shuttle 
in from other areas for the past several weeks. 

Your mission is to sieze either island and thwart any and all 
attempts by the Japanese to interfere with the landings. 

Commander your overwhelming priority is preservation of your 
amphib assets - they are merely loaned from other operations
and must return quickly they must be protected

Good luck Commander.  Success here may very well shorten
the war by bringing about Japan's surrender.
