14-16 June 1944
Troops will depart next turn for the Sabang/Babo Invasions. Units assembling for the Sorong Operation. Things of note in three days:
14th - nothing. Amzingly quick combat resolution
15th
* SS Spirit torpedoes and sinks a TK between Batavia and Kuching
* LBA out of Padang hits the same TF in the day putting 6 bombs into one TK and one each in two more. The more severely damaged one sinks on the 16th. This TF is hiding under bad weather at Batavia at present. That's three TK in the last five days after not seeing one for a month

That'll leave a mark! To my surprise I am not detecting a lot of new TF's being formed up here yet.
The returning CVTF from Darwin arrives PH next turn and will begin Repair and Upgrades. Two out of three of the CV's already at PH are fullly upgraded and at 0 Syst as is the one CVL. CV Bunker Hill is at 2 Syst. After a very long Pause, CentPac is on the edge of some action. I am through **** footing around with these Atoll invasions. Larry has 33 k troops at Marcus (10% above the HR limit) I am sending three full ID, a RCT,Tanks, and Arty. I plan to blow thru this base like a hot knife through butter
