The Tennesseean is showing up on the sunk ships list so I think maybe I really did sink her.

I-172 took some hits but none of them are major yet so I think she will stick around some more and see what else happens.

YP-197 is showing up on the sunk ships list so I'm guessing she is really gone for good.

An Allied sub got in close despite my having a PB escort and sunk one of my ships. She shot back and got a hit before she went down
though.

It appears that Jim is moving some boats to Singapore or somewhere. I got a couple of hits on her as we were passing in the night I
guess. My PB is probably going too slow to catch her now though.....I'm going to have to use a DD to chase her down.

The Shooting Star is showing up on the sunk ships list so I'm guessing I got her.

The Aso Maru incurred some major damage in an Allied sub attack and now I need to drive her to Saigon or somewhere to get fixed.

The Mapele is showing up on the sunk ships list so she is surely gone for good.

Operation Beat-Down continues at Manila. Not much damage is being done by these raids but I guess it's better than nothing at all.

The Japs are still taking losses at Port Moresby but they are light this time.

But on the other hand, here's a ship to have taken serious damage and is NOT on the sunk ships list. Wonders will never cease.

I-20 took some damage and is on it's way to the repair shed. I don't have anybody nearby to take up that station either.

I seem to be attacking way too early still at Manila. I'm going to have to beat down that Allied gaggle before I try attacking again. Some
air raids and maybe if I can engineer it, some ship-to-shore stuff. Maybe.

There was some ground action at Mataram that seems to indicate that more is needed in the way of ship-to-shore or maybe some air
bombardment or something. Either that or just bull my way through more troop losses.

I took a look at the land-based planes just now and noticed that I have a boat-load of them that aren't ready for prime-time still. It's
going to take some time to get some AF dudes to those bases and get them fixed. Jim can have a field-day meanwhile. Lots of them
are in China where I moved some planes to the west w/o really noticing if there were any AF dudes at the receiving airfield. D'oh.

Did I happen to mention the Manzyu Maru? She took a couple of torpedoes and still has about 1500 people aboard and she's limping
to port on fire. May not make it. I don't mind losing the ship so much but I'd hate to lose those people.
