Yorktown arrives in Panama, along with 8 Sims class destroyers. These have the K-launchers that all my current DDs seem to lack, making them better ASW boats. Hornet won't show for another 80+ days.
I'm getting a lot of troops up in the Seattle area. It's tempting me to maybe entertain taking a northern route through the Aleutians. We'll see...
