I am sorry about the pause. RealLife(tm) interfered the writing of this AAR, luckily I had just time to do my turns. Current thoughts I feel pleased how many aircraft the enemy is losing to flak and operative losses. If this continues I will someday have 2-to-1 advantage in aircraftlosses points. On the otherhand I fear that I shall face the same when I start major airoperations. Ground units and aircraft have just started to roll off from their assebmly lines and I start to feel that I have little more secure bases. Bad things is that I forgot to put any escort for the tanker group(that got fired upon twice by the same sub). I usually forget something trivial. Enemy has decided to cut-off Java from Australia by occupying Timor, east part of it for the time being. I have withdrawn my minelaying force from Java and sent it away. As a last parting gift it gave about 15 subs mines and they started to spred them to enemy bases. Quite large amount of SWPAC aircraft has arrived and are on the to Brisbane and Noumea. Same goes for the ground troops.
