Wow -- can't complain about lack of action in this AAR! If my reading is correct, the IJN lost rather more of the difficult-to-replace carrier aircraft and pilots, while the Allies lost more ground-based planes. Still, the Japanese may be about even on ship losses because of that massacre of merchant ships by the Rabaul-based Betties. And it's a shame that North Carolina caught two torpedoes. Well, maybe Washington can duel with Yamato instead.
Civil war? What does that mean? Is there any foreign war? Isn't every war fought between men, between brothers?

I think Tek was teasing... [;)]
by the way, congrats to the navy boys - looks like Tek will have to kick some asses at Truk to know why Kido Butai crews are flying while being drunk... the hit ratio of those last attacks is lightyears away from what the Hiryu's boys achieved at Midway against the Yorktown...
