Thanks Just keep doing what you are doing, Buck. As Don says, we been there, and are doing the same things you are. Maybe not today, and maybe not tomorrow, but soon ... there's gonna be a 'Don's-Babies-right-down-to-yard-oiler-barges-and-tug-boats' scenario coming out. And it will be as gritty as you can possibly deal with. Japan too. Hoo Yah!

A few (like YP-16 and -17, six bitters at Guam) might sneak in for historical purposes. There was also a small class of 100-foot steel boats, seven of which became Navy YPs and at least one of which was on the West Coast.

What I am trying to do (for my own purposes) is to fill out the West Coast and Alaska with the Coast Guard ships and bases. I will have to create a new base for the Ketchkan District main base and find some way of populating the USN officer list to compensate for the new CG ships. I know all this just adds to the micromanagement of the game but it sort of fills the gap between the Alaskan and West Coasts waters and Pearl Harbor with patrol vessels.
