No DOW

Land actions for Japan and Germany. Naval for Italy.

Italy makes all their naval moves as shown in Italian coast (picture below) except their sub moves into the 3 box of Cape St. Vincent. Italy declined to search there but the Allies can search Italian Coast.

Do the Allies wish to search?
