Well, it actually reflects the switch of human opponent - as advertised in an earlier posting - but I am
sure you were aware of that.

You have to love the British reading this sometimes takes me back to Monty Python humor, Japanese sink a British fleet,but it is reported as only a flesh wound.

As I understand it the Japanese were also prone to hide, or delay news of, own losses. Midway being an example.

There is no training as intense as when the bullets are coming towards you . . .

Too bad about the R-class BBs, I like them. Did they have night search planes up? That might have helped.
Seek peace but keep your gun handy.

I'm not a complete idiot, some parts are missing! :o
