Fulkerson (J) vs Moore (A) ( no Moore )

I found a situation at Bubble Drop that matches what Wake needs right now. I rounded up some AP's and attached an AO, and then
provided an escort for this ensamble and called it a TF. It's going to take about 8 days to get to Wake and by then the Allies might have
it. Just kidding.

My Northern carrier group is just now pulling into Yokohama for a rest. Fix the damage, refuel, rearm, etc and then we'll hit the road
again.

Jim and I have exchanged files and I've watched the movie and I have some fresh combat results to show you but first I thought I'd post
something about the breakthrough I'vce had near Port Moresby. I have an LCU that's crossing the mountain divide and moving from
Buna to Port Moresby and he's about 1/2 way there now. He finally started moving and now he is one hex closer to having a supply path
going from Buna. Cool.

If he hadn't run out of ammo he would have gotten more hits on the sub. Maybe.

One of my subs got lucky near Colombo:

If you bomb from 5,000 feet you get damaged a lot. Note to self: increase altitude of bombers.

This is the first of several attacks on Darwin:

[larryfulkerson]

The Manila remnants are still getting the beat down on them.

[larryfulkerson]

Cagayan had some Jap attention paid to it:

[larryfulkerson]

There were several attacks on Johore Bahru:

[larryfulkerson]

And the Beat Down starts in Java too:

[larryfulkerson]

And just then Singapore gets struck:

[larryfulkerson]

And Jim is doing his PBY's on Rangoon again:

[larryfulkerson]

And then Jim does his B-17's again on Port Moresby:

[larryfulkerson]

And then the Japs do their Port Moresby raid:

[larryfulkerson]

A lot of ships are hit in this Jap carrier-borne raid but not too many of the are sunk: I don't know why they are using bombs instead of
torpedoes. I'll have to look into that:

[larryfulkerson]

I-24 is having a very bad day:

[larryfulkerson]

Ha-5 was sunk but Ha-3 is only damaged by this attack:

[larryfulkerson]

And the Allies do their daily ground bombardment of Port Moresby:

[larryfulkerson]

This is how it went on the ground at Mersing:
