While you may find this a bit OT, There is a very interesting story about one of the characters here on the Reg website relating to officer material.

Man in fine linen slacks: <on phone> ...Oh, absolutely Mr. Honda, your boys are doing a splendid job, absolutely splendid. In fact, that's why I called. It seems the boys from Morelia have become so good at repairing bomb holes that the Japs are flying those Goddamn Tojos again.


...Yeah, that's right. We need you to ease off a bit to restore some equilibrium. You see, if one side wins then the gig is over and it's bad for the entereprise. Got it?


....Great. Here is my idea. Capt., err, Mr. Yossarian is going to fly in a union rep from the Longshoremen's Union. The guy is a pit bull. You pretend to oppose him, but not too hard. Just make it look good. Inside of a week your boys will be taking 45 minute cigarette breaks and half will call in sick on Mondays. Your productivity will fall by half....

....No, no, no. That's the whole point. Even better, I'll give you half the union dues. It's a win, win.....

It's a walk-off grand slam in the 7th game of the series in the last game of the career of a future Hall-of-Famer with a winning smile who doesn't sleep around or use "vitamins"...AND.... the ball flies 540 ft over the top tier, crashes through Mrs. O'leary's bakery shop window and comes to rest near the picture of her ganddaughter who needs surgey to regain her eyesight and now she can sell the ball, pay for the surgery, clsoe the shop and move down to Boca Raton.

It's been a long AAR so I can't remember all the results you have on LYB capital ships sunk. Could you post a screenshot of the Intel screen on sunk IJN warships, at least CV/BB/CA types?

USS Skipjack attacks 3 groups of DD's and lives to tell. The skipper used to jump off his uncle's farmhouse roof when he was 5 just for fun.

Had he been born 50 years later he would still be on Ritalin.

And no escorts either. I think the problem is he has to give the attack orders in Dutch. All the spit makes it hard to see through the periscope.

Allied carriers are 80 WNW of PH. Very poorly coordinated Jap strike. I'm not even sure they are from the carriers. Good Allied CAP. 50% of the Kates release their weapons. Some have torps, some have bombs.
