PT boats ride the waves of glory!

[2Stepper]

I know we've talked this topic ad-nausium for ages about PT successes, but this is one instance where they achieved TOTAL surprise over an IJN surface fleet. I for one am NOT going to complain as I've been getting my tail handed to my by my PBEM counterpart! [:@][:D]

This exchange however was a joy!

The Haurana was subsequently blasted by no less then 15 thousand lb bombs from Dauntlesses that were stationed on the island they tried to shell. [8D]

End result, a Japanese BB with more holes then a stock block of swiss cheese. [8D]

Makes up slightly for the rest of the butt kicking I've taken up to this point. [:D][:D][:D]
