I just watched the first half of Red Dawn for the 3rd time. I'm thinking this may not have been a good use of my time remaining on the planet.

Splitting the Rs (don't split your own Rs it smarts - or so I'm told) Tow bombardment groups, one to Geelong and one to Melbourne. Splendid! The Jap carriers seem to be on station East of Tasmania. I will allow the USN BB's to be spotted from Lord Howe Is and see if we can bait the carriers eastward so that the RN can ingress from the West. Of course, they might not fall for that again. Transports headed to Sydney and Port Kembla to make some noise. There are two AKE's headed for Adelaide. If the opoportunity permits they may be able to make a run in to Melbourne.

************March 28, 1942(e)************** Hey....Marshall, forget about Europe. Send us some GD fighters and B-17's. The Japs are trying to capture the two largest cities in Australia.

Even the ugliest plane in the Pacific Theater (B-18) is flying in from Pearl for the big air party over N&IC. Allied air bosses find out the P-400's true capabilities and reclassify it as POS-400.
