RE: RADM Yamaguchi's Diary (Pls no affins or cheesesteak) - 
Split the unit into thirds, give each third replacements, give them fighter escort. The same fighter unit can do 30% CAP and 10% LRCAP on the same target as the bombers, especially if the target has fighters based there. Don't give the enemy free points.
