NAVAL SUMMARY, March 31st, 1942

[Walloc]

Hi Ramón,

I wouldnt be counting on those 23. If 5 or 6 is actually sunk. I'd be happy. Less u caught a number of subs at port. Thats the only killz that is really reliable for subs, FoW wise. In my experience.

Kind regards,

Rasmus

[Fletcher]

Hello Rasmus, good to see you here !
Thanks for the advise, I know about it, ... any actually number of sunk submarine are valuable...23 is soo much !, 4 of them have been sunk in port (2 at Soerabaja and another 2 at Singapore), if 4-6 more were sunk by ASW surface or air assets would be very good
Thanks a lot,
Best of wishes,
Ramón

SUBJECT: ENEMY ACTIVITIES - MARSHALL ISLANDS -
DATE: APRIL 01st, 1942.

YESTERDAY, March 31st, 1942, one H6K4 reported one hit on enemy submarine near Kwajalein Island. Today our air assets have spotted no less than 6 enemy submarines at Marshalls. All available air assets are working on ASW duties to support our weak surface ASW assets in this area. Tanker convoy reached Kwajalein Island without news but my must is request any available ASW surface ship to protect this maritime link with metropoli.

This heavy enemy activities in the area could be previous to enemy raid over Marshalls.
