22nd January 1944

Post by Speedysteve »

Hi all,

LOL guys[:D] I love you too T[;)] dumbass[:'(]

-------------------

BB's Alabama, Washington and North Carolina delivered their fiery message to Wake.....it seems to me that the enemy return fire has diminished. Maybe I have timed this invasion just right. Normally my ships receive 5-15 return hits but not anymore:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Naval bombardment of Wake Island, at 82,63 - Coastal Guns Fire Back!

7 Coastal gun shots fired in defense.
Allied Ships
CL Birmingham
CL Nashville
CA Canberra
CA Chester
CA Northampton, Shell hits 2
BB Alabama
BB Washington
BB North Carolina

Japanese ground losses:
540 casualties reported
Guns lost 14

Airbase hits 4
Runway hits 59
Port hits 5
Port supply hits 5

If this is the case it will be a good indicator for future invasions.

The landings should go in in 2 days time.

5th Base Force positions received a hammering from my DS. A further 400+ men were hit.

----------------------

SS Thresher obtained a nice catch today. She was moving past Lombok, (did you know there is a Furniture chain of that name too now[8|]) on her way to the Soerabaja area, when her SJ Radar detected a lone ship in the early morning hours. She stealthily closed and happily saw an innocent Minelayer. She lined up 4 stern tubes and fired! 1 of which seemed to hit and the small ships totally vanished from view in a cloud of fire and smoke.......ML Maeshima is no more............

Air sightings = 15
Air attacks = 1

-----------------------

Burma moves on.........

This is what I mean. Recon indicates 3 units leaving the Moulmein area probably bound for Rangoon. Also Mandalay's troop level dropped by 8000 men and 300 vehicles = has to be 3rd Tank Division. This unit also appears to be moving to Rangoon. This can't be coincidence..........I hope none of you guys are tipping him off please[:-][&o][:)]

This may change my future operation. I may also not disclose future plans just in case there is a spy.

P.S. I'm currently reading "Court of the Red Tsar" by Simon Sebag-Montefiore = suspicion and paranoia are everywhere[;)]

I will probably attack at Mandalay soon due to the changing situation there:

Ground combat at Mandalay

Allied Bombardment attack

Attacking force 159628 troops, 1435 guns, 1379 vehicles, Assault Value = 3973

Defending force 198747 troops, 745 guns, 265 vehicles, Assault Value = 3830


Japanese ground losses:
75 casualties reported
Guns lost 2

----------------------

An AK arrives in theatre tomorrow.

Hey, T. Have you noticed that I never receive the "colorful" language that you do, even when we both harass guys in the forum. I wonder what the difference is......

Speedy, I follow this AAR as well as Faber's AAR very closely. No one says anything that may disclose or even hint at any nasty ops you are planning or any righteous ops Faber is doing (in order to right any wrongs you've done [:D]). If there's anything "fishy" going on, it's in PMs.

Speedy and Nik are both fascinated by me to an unhealthy degree. In general, though, it's probably my weight of posts that intimidates and scares people...[:D]
