Well I have not seen the turn yet only the combat replay It was a good day for the Allies 10th Armies III Amphib Corps spearheaded by the 4th USMC Div captured Apparri AF follow on forces from three Amry Corps are passing through them driving on Loang 6th Army attacked successfully in the south but despite good progress they were held up by the good defensive terrain it is expected that I Amphib Corps will secure the AF within 24 Hours. In the night the Mighty Japanese BB Yamato was sighted and attacked the Wisconsin BG moved to intercept and a hard fought draw occured. North Carolina looks to be hit hard although I hope not fatally Richelieu ate a torpedo but did not look damaged and Wisconsin looked to be in one piece all in all an interesting night The Jap TF looks to have taken moderate damage and Wisconsins 16" shells look to have hit Yamato several times Mutsu looks to be in trouble AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR 05/19/45 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coastal Guns at Tuguegarao, 46,50, firing at TF 1004 TF 1004 troops unloading over beach at Tuguegarao, 46,50 Allied ground losses: 231 casualties reported -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Coastal Guns at Aparri, 46,49, firing at TF 1026 TF 1026 troops unloading over beach at Aparri, 46,49 115 Coastal gun shots fired in defense.
