The PT boat raids never found the KB and the LBA at Pearl never summoned the gumption to attack after getting their haircut on Dec 7. 3 or 4 F4F-3's at Midway essentially stopped the tired pilots of the KB from doing any damaged at Midway.

Yes. They are leading quite a skillful charge in the PI. Perhaps only 1/3 of the ships at Manila will make it out. We had to create an emergency field at Tomini in the Celebes to get fighters squadrons out of the PI.

The Sulawese Sea has been a busy place. We have had a few successes with hit and run surface raids and PT boats and some hits on transports from Dutch Martin bombers and Hudsons. They will be shipping some iron back to be salvaged and some will undoubtedly sink but hasn't shown up on the sips sunk list yet.

Status: offline 		Thanks gents. Indeed the Japs are just dismantling the PI and have completely devastated the ships that were based there. They are scooping up oil facilities like Mr Rockefeller. They are clearly good planners. We have had some success at the margins and our LBA is beginning to bite his transports.

That's excellent... Catch 22; one of the more absurd books/films ever made...
