Things are trundling along, 5th Division has finally formed up in Malaya and is advancing on Georgetown with the Imperial Guards, who have had their Leader replaced....Leadership of 29 for my Favourite Infantry Div!! I don't think so!!.
They should be assaulting Georgetown in three days.
Hopefully troops will be in Johore next turn to eject the garrison there, and then I'll just roll up the whole Peninsula.
A slow advance in the Phillipines, but I'm in no rush. Just waiting for the Guards Mixed Brigade to arrive at Truk and then the Rabaul assault can begin. [X(]
