fulkerson v Rob.......no Rob please

[larryfulkerson]

It's just a matter of time before I get SS S-39 if he insists on lingering in the area.

[larryfulkerson]

S I-172 is spotted now so I guess I'd better move him before I lose him

[larryfulkerson]

This turn and last turn also, I've been losing Nate's. I'm going to have to replace those Nate's with Zero's and either move the Nate's or stand them down or something.....maybe turn them into pure CAP flights. Either that or lose them all.

[larryfulkerson]

Unless and until I move some air cover into Singkawang I'm under threat of losing some ships to Allied air operating out of Singapore and the region.

[larryfulkerson]

All 9 of my Nell's missed with their torpedoes. Sounds like somebody needs some LowNavTorp training or something.

[larryfulkerson]

One of these days Rob is going to get lucky and get a hit or two with his Catalina's. I have some air cover moving that way even as we speak.

[larryfulkerson]

Another place where I need some air cover: Madang. Maybe I can ship those Nate's from near Iba to Madang and near by.

[larryfulkerson]

While I was investigating the sub attack near Iba I noticed a large gaggle of Allied small craft headed SW and into harm's way. I just happened to have some surface forces nearby to hopefully, take care of that little problemo.

[larryfulkerson]

Finally some good news from Tarakan. I finally captured the place. I was thinking it was going to be iffy but it wasn't that bad.

[larryfulkerson]

It's looking like I need some more troops at Iloilo. I'll see if I can't ship some more dudes into there.

[larryfulkerson]

Rabaul is going to need some help. I have some INF dudes at Manus that can be shipped in pretty quick. Maybe that'll do in a pinch.

[larryfulkerson]

And now some combat details from the 21st of Dec:

A submarine war breaks out just NW of Kushing.

[larryfulkerson]

A rather one-sided battle happened during the night.

[larryfulkerson]

The sub war near Pearl is still going on:

[larryfulkerson]

A couple of fruitful sub attacks happened:

[larryfulkerson]

The Dutch Air Force paid us a visit at Tarakan

[larryfulkerson]

Rob is trying to sink my ships with his Catalina recon jobs:

[larryfulkerson]

The losses I'm sustaining at Brunei is losses I don't need to have taking place. I'm needing some AAA units or some planes to do CAP.

[larryfulkerson]

My carrier planes got some hits:

There's good news from Lingayen:
