CSV up first.

BTW, the lone naval move for Italy was two cruisers from Malta move into the Red Sea and pick up a German division each.

Axis find 4-5 in CSV. 4 points which were spent to make it a submarine combat.

Miss.

USA search in the Solomons. Japan has a NAV2 that can reach the 2-box, but as I see no practical benefit for it to fly I proceed to search rolls directly.
