Japanese Unit(s) surrounded at Koumac
that's it, we can now declare the operation of defending New Caledonia brought to a succesful end... the IJN pays for it losing several BB/CV plus other ships and the IJA lost 1 Div plus two Rgt...
another IJN BB was confirmed sunk today... looks like three dozen 1000lb bomb hits are enough to sink an IJN BB far away from a major port (even in Babes with reduced bomb effect)... Yamashiro also took a British torp IIRC...
