And then there was a Jap airstrike on Manila w/ good results. Just another month of this and we'll be done.

And then some Nells did another strike on Darwin........this one had the results I expected from attacking into CAP.

And then there was another strike on Singers:

And then a strike at Townsville got some more hits on a BB:

Here's how it went on the ground at Manila:

And then I did a defensive attack:

And then Oosthaven saw some action:

And then the Allies did their daily ground bombardment at Port Moresby:

Here's the combat report:

The Allied fighters are back in Darwin and they are interferring w/ my bombing campaign so it's time for another naval bombardment. TF
23 is already tasked and on it's way.

Cam Ranh Bay is due tomorrow to receive a 44.5K slug of supplies from TF 35, which is a good thing because CRB is almost out of them.

I've got a TF carrying the 4th Inf Rgt to Gorontalo which is the last British holdout in the Celebes I think. It shouldn't take too long to
subdue and conquer the place. After that I'm thinking of taking them to the south Java cities and dumping them there.

I've found a bunch of TK's and have re-directed them to head to Palembang so I can start moving the oil out of there.

TF 524 is slated to do a naval bombardment of Port Moresby sometime soon. They are on their way as we speak.

I'm planning on making a trip south along the east coast of Oz w/ my carrier just to look for any capital ships and or transport shipping.
Either one is fair game I say. And if I'm going to make a very long trip there is going to be a need for extra fuel so I thought I'd get an AO
started that way early to get it into position and ready. I'm not so sure it's a good idea to bombard Port Moresby w/ my heavy guns and
I'll tell you why: I may need them to be fully-armed if and when I run into some serious capital ships. And for that matter Jim may have a
gaggle of carriers on their way to Port Moresby even as we speak. I would if I were him. We may have some drama soon.

I changed my mind. Instead of bombarding Port Moresby I'm going to bombard Townsville. Maybe I can get some of those Allied planes
specifically the fighters. Fighters can CAP and I'm after the BB in port so I'll need a port attack and the less fighters Jim has the better the
chance is that I can get a Kate through it and into the port itself.

Now here's something you don't see every day.........it's a PB that has about 1K of resources loaded. What do you know....I guess I'll
direct him to unload them on the home islands somewhere.

Here's the ships and the planes of TF 576. I've got the Val's and Kate's all armed at the port and one carrier wants to fly nothing but a
sweep of Townsville and it looks like we're all set to get that BB.

I received Jim's moves and did the movie and here's some fresh combat results:

Here's the losses from the turn:

One of my subs found a TK out near the middle of nowhere:
