The situation for the Americans in Fiji is starting to look very grim. We will shortly be driving them back into the sea!

... or the George Carlin version:
Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day.
Teach a man to fish and he'll sit in a boat and drink beer all day!

6/27/42 Koumac again. I think he's going to need a bigger boat (I think he's getting one now).

7/1/42 Here's an example of the kind of stuff going on around Rabaul on a daily basis. The Tojos just started spelling the Zeros. The shipments are to Rabaul and Madang.

This is not far from Amoy. Raiden is pushing whereever he thinks he can get away with it in China and Thailand. He's trying to divert troops away from the DEI. Problem is it's working. Nuts.

7/3/42 Raiden and I are having a very merry 3rd of July, hope you are too. Events on Fiji - Raiden's being a very nadi nadi boy. [:-] Also an ill advised attack from me at a base I still control in northern Thailand.

I'm starting to think I didn't sink a single BB at Pearl, and didn't damage them all that badly either.

7/8/42 Raiden's been bombing Tarawa almost daily for the last three weeks, softening it up. He didn't realize the only forces I had defending Tarawa were tortoises. He finally landed there and, as you can see below, the tortoises put up one hell of a fight on the beaches, dumping equipment into the sea and nearly drowning 447 troops!
