Despite the heroic propaganda from the USA , thier ships continue to hide and cower ... well that is right up untill night fall when they drive out their speed boats to attack innocent supply shipping. We understand after the crushing defeat at sea they might be hesitent to fight but these cowardly tactics are simply an example of why we must fight the lazy corrupt allies.

The Chinese on the other hand, in true oriental spirit are bringing to fight to us. The whole country is awash in blood.

All eyes are defenitly on China today. Japanese forces make critical advances across the battle field. In Hong Kong another fort is destroyed. In the far north , Tanrok(sp?) we break the chinese siege. Our forces continue to mass for Yenen.

Today also saw a battle with almost 100,000 troops participating. In other places Malaya continues to succum to our irresistable march. Most naval action is down to sub/ASW from place to place. PI remains basicly bogged down , with the totally fumbled start in this area it's become hard to regain momentom.

CHina continues to be the most active area on the map. a more up to date map will be posted later.

Phillipines: with only a few landings and no movment in Northern part of the Island, troops continue to dig in around the Capital. Battan also is building forts.

Malaya: With georgtown gone, troops flee back towards singapore, for a last stand. Supply is great, and forts are strong both inside and outside of singapore

Rangoon: reports of a jap div within 60 miles of the city. Bombers sent to pound it.

rabaul/Port morseby continue to fortify, no activity at all.

central pacific: midway is strong, with wake having fallen on the 1st day. everything has been sent to midway. Pearl is starting to recover from the 3 days of attacks at the start of the war.

makin, tarawa, no enemy activity.

Australia: troop movments, supplys moving and digging in the order of the day.

India: plans being made as where to defend, anyone have a suggestion as where the best place to hold is?

*** Position 41,40 ****

The situation on the ground was grim , out of supplies and dogged by a large Chinese division of over 10,000 troops. No way to escape. Today would be another day of Japanese blood spilts. Cornered , outnumbered and without supply there was no hope....

...Then over the radio a faint single came threw "Achi Ich , this is relief TF XXX , please relay cordinates where you want fire directed"... Aparently they had not been forgotten. Cordinates of enemy position (within spitting distance) where relayed out. A silenece filled the air , everyone in ear shot of the raido tent stopped and waited , it was almost sareal.

About 5 minutes later a loud series of thunderous booms where heard behind them out from the direction of the sea. What seemed like an enternety passed and then in front of them in the middle of the Chinese lines all hell broke loose. To say the Chinese where caught off guard would not be fair , because no one could catch them considering how far into the air they wehre flung. The pounding continued all morning. Hundred of Chinese meet their fate.

The gave a half hearted charge again at the Japanese soldiers later in the day but with moral boosted from the display of raw Japanese naval power and the knowledge they where not forgotten the lines held , and held well.

Hong Kong should fall soon , which will free up those troops to help elsewhere in China. The rest of the front in China is a seesaw match of attacks and counter attacks and manuvor. Malaya the allies run for Singapore. In the PI the crazy amercans seem to be trying to go on the offensive. While deep down I can't blame them considering how our invasion there was ... well not up to par would be a nice way of saying it , it will do them no good.

Dec 28th 1942

Hong Kong continues to hold, Not sure who is more suprised, me or Artic.

Philipines I think is a problem for him, His intial landings didnt execute on dec 7th, and its been a problem ever since. Ive started local counter attacks to disrupt him as much as I can. Wont be long until he lands near Naga to put more pressure on Mac and the boys.

China Is like the Russian front was for the germans ( or will be once the germans attack). I doubt many of his troops would prefer China to a jungle outpost. did the Japs have a Sgt Schultz type? perhaps I will email the fox network, anyone have a title I can suggest?

Central, southwest, and south pacific...... just crickets...........

Rangoon is under tHe gun now. Dont think it will hold for long.

DEI: mass exoudous of ships. I am not withdrawing troops here as some do. We intend to hold as much of the DEI as can be done with the limited troops we have.

Malaya: see attached map

The large air raids in singapore where called off yesterday. We where no longer killing enough enemy planes to justify the damage to the airfield we intend to capture [:)] My pilots enjoyed a nice day off to celebrate their fallen brethren whom died in the glorious service of the emperor.

PI - the starting errors there are being fixed as we speak.

China - Hong Kong somehow manages to hang on in spite of the nearing month long siege. The battle for Yenen is beginning. Eslewhere the front is stalled neither side gaining an upper hand.

Ragoon - Will fall shortly.

Various landings where made today to furthur our aims in PI and Borneo. Most of our large reinforcements to the PI have made it ashore in Aparii and Laong under cover of some rough weather. In Chine the foolish chinese get themselves slaughtered in Canton trying to attack us (over 3,000 chinese dead). Yenen is likly not to hold for very long and Hong Kong shold fall "soon" , or at least I keep telling myself that.

.... .... .... All ships at sea, this Punni-San on Pearl Harbor Radio...

I would like to make sure that the boys from the 14th Tank Reg, make sure to wear their Life perservers, because that ship they are sailing on, the Nissen Marau #2 is very old and leaky. when you get to the Phillipines boys, if you make it, Make sure to have your salt tablets, as I hear you will be having a hot reception, and on the way there, Dont be alarmed if you see a eyeglass poking out of the sea...., and while your boarding, enjoy this oldie, but goodie........

We take over more bases. The allied dogs attack our AP's with subs and fighters. Aparently we have not schooled our escort Destroyer captains well enough in the art of sub hunting. In Malaya they have been herded into Singapore and two bases just north of it. Troops in northern PI have started marching / rolling.

In other news due to a misscommunication todays bombing raids on Manila the Zero escort failed to apear , the result was not pretty.

New years eve finds 1Lt. Frank Hubble 24Fighter squadron, sitting in the bombed out remains of the Officers club in manila. Having drank the last bottle of scotch in the city with the rest of his sqaudron, they head out to the flight line to put up 18 P40e's mostly patched, and some without full load of gas. It shouldnt matter its just a short hop to day, flying cover over the AF. As he reached their alt of 17,000 feet set for today is a suprise for tojo.. the last 3 days nobody came up to challenge tojo's bombing runs, today, we fight!. Control calls over the radio, 48 boggies heading in. They search and search, but cant locate them, till his wing man call out Up there, 12 O'clock High. they pull the stick back and climb and climb, but they watch in disgust, as the the Lilly's are bombing from over 30,000 feet, to high for this peice of junk to get . As they start to circle back down, the radio crackles again. 80 Boggies, 20,000 feet vector 010.. good luck....... As they circle back down from their lofty height, they see 80 bettys in perfect formation, almost if on parade. And the suprise in tact, no Zero's!!!.. when the battle is over, Lt Hubble, is 1 kill short of being the 1st American ace of the war. His bag today, 4 Bettys, and the rest of the 24th did well to, 15 Betty's and the lost of 1 P40E.......... Now if there was only more scotch to celebrate the ringing in of New years day, 1942.

Today finds the allied PT boats sallying out to do battle [:@] It is plainly apparent the amercians are inncapable of fighting us like men in the daylight. They resort to either subs or night raids with suicidal PT boat squads.

The Chinese are starting to lose ground. Today they pulled out of Canton , aparently they did not appreciate my Navy's gifts to them. Also the fabled "force Z" apeared in Ragoon to bombard our troops there , not that it will do them any good.

Today a large air battle was faught over clark field. Our glorious airforce destroyed many enemy planes. The brave men trapped for weeks now behind enemy lines in china refused to board the ship. They said that if a China expedition unit did not relive them they would die where they stood. The partroopers where thankfully more resonable and boarded the trasports.
