John Wayne's PT Boat Flotilla off Bataan, err...Cam Rahn Bay

FYI - Based a US PT boat flotilla at Bataan with React "3" set and left it undocked. Then I promptly forgot about it. A few days later, I was surprised to see US PT boats reported as having torpedoed several Japanese ships near Cam Rahn Bay. Last time I looked, that was in Vietnam. Not sure how that happened but I thought that you might want to know in case its a bug that requires fixing. And yes, the boats made it back but with 75 - 82 damage levels (not combat induced). Otherwise, the game is running fine so far and I am very happy with the "changes" in air/naval and ground combat playing against the Japanese AI.

Please disregard, apparently it was the wandering British MTB flotilla from Hong Kong after the Japanese captured the city.....now its based in the Philippines (and probably ready to flee again soon).

Still a long way to go. Historically those not lost by the time Hong Kong fell ran to a Chinese controlled bay and scuttled themselves.
We are looking at these over-long PT movements.
