6-7 April 1944 Burma Quiet. But strangely it looks that Docup is moving ~80k troops from Burma to Ramree Island. It looks that Docup is moving them elsewhere I wonder where he plane to use them if not in Burma N. Pacific. I manage to avoid Docup DEs. 6 more Liberators shot down. I saw big convoy sailing to Adak. Ships look like cargo ships but i dont want to risk closing to Adak to much. I have only 40 fighters flying CAP. South Pacific Allies land on Tabiteuea. My boys hold two shock attack but i think tomorrow i will lose base. DDs bombard Tarawa destroying ~20 and damaging over 40 bombers. Base is closed. Timor Area Allies land on dot base North of Timor. It is called Pantar. Ki-45 manage to sunk/damage most of ships but allies manage to unload most of troops.
