We stage a fighter ambush over Wagga Wagga but the LYB's don't show up.

No ground attack at Wagga Wagga today. Looks like it will hold and deny the LYB's another level 2 field.

Hope things are okay over there at Camp Rogers and Hammerstein. I was having a little think (jolly dangerous after a few snifters I admit) and came up with a rather jolly wheeze. Why don't we, that is you, rather than worry about Oz start to garrison the Solomons. I do believe this would make JJ's nether regions pucker as we would be across their lines of communication.

Pip pip and don't let your wossnames dangle in the dust

2 divisions trapped on New & Improved Caledonia, at least 4 divisions attacking toward Melbourne...it does seem they must be running low on Little Yellow Bastards. Green Island is still green.

We could sneak some engineers ashore. That would get their attention when it went level 1. I will start the three USMC regiments planning for the Solomons and turn around 2nd USMC Para Bn. I wonder what they have at Rabaul? Perhaps the USN BB's could come in from the East and bombard?
