Naval actions for Britain and Free France, land for USSR.

Searching these two sea zones with a sub in the 3-box of each. Will need your support decisions.

Axis fly a nav to the 2-box of each.

In each zone, the CP is found and destroyed.
both subs dive thereafter.

USSR railed Kharkov factory to Baku.

As an FYI, I will be editing the 7-6 Mech currently in Liverpool to Bathurst, Gambia, when I get the file back. You can see the empty transport there. PeskPesk pointed out the American garrison did not make it to Honolulu from San Diego either. Thus, another edit. This damn transport bug is annoying. At the same time, I will fix the Dusseldorf militia problem as well.

Below is the file after Japan declares war on USA and Britain.
