Andy, Here are some suggestions, The following ships may need to have the initial positions changed. I looked on the Net so I do not know that the following is 100% accurate. BB West Virginia should still be at Pearl Harbor. She sailed for Bremerton on 7 May 1943. BB Nevada should be at Puget Sound Navy Yard (Seattle hex). “refloated on 12 Feb 1942 after only two months. She received temporary repairs at Pearl Harbor and sailed to Puget Sound Navy Yard for further repairs in Apr 1942. BB California should still be at Pearl Harbor. “On 25 March 1942, California was refloated and dry-docked at Pearl Harbor for repairs. On 7 June, she departed under her own power for Puget Sound Navy Yard” DD Shaw should be at San Francisco with damage. “On 9 February, Shaw steamed towards San Francisco where repairs were completed, including the installation of a new bow, at the end of June.” DD Cassin should be at SF for Apr 44 “Recommissioned 5 February 1944. Cassin reported at Pearl Harbor 22 April 44” DD Downes should be at SF for Mar 44 “Recommissioned on 15 November 1943, Downes sailed from San Francisco California 8 March 1944” “Both Cassin ans Downes ship's hulls were damaged beyond repair but machinery and equipment were salvaged and sent to Mare Island Navy Yard where entirely new ships were built around the salvaged material and given the wrecked ship's names and hull numbers” CM Oglala at Pearl but with major Damage (she was not raised till mid Apr 42) “She received temporary repairs during much of the rest of 1942 and, in December, left Pearl Harbor for the U.S. west coast, there to be refurbished for active service. She was redesignated ARG-1 in May 1943 and recommissioned at the end of February 1944 ” Thanks Daryl
