quote: All convoys report no contacts. No news is good news. As far as sub on sub action, when subs are in friendly territory they usually travel on the surface. After all, friendly fire is not more accurate or deadlier than enemy fire. In fact, friendly fire should not hurt at all . . .

West Coast USA, Alaska, Hawaii • Enemy sub activity near Dutch Harbor, Kodiak. • All convoys report no contacts. • Lots of ships finished upgrades at Pearl Harbor today. All of the APA will be ready in one more day; almost all of the warships are ready; in less than a week additional relevant ships including BB Massachusetts will arrive at Pearl from the Canal; two more convoys with additional APA, AK, and LST will arrive from the West Coast in about 10 days. Loading of assault convoys will await those additional ships.

India, Burma, Thailand, Indochina • No enemy sub activity detected. • Our troops are beginning to arrive in Shwebo and it appears the enemy has ceded the place. We will not attack, hoping to keep fortifications in place and preserve supply. Even if local authorities do not capitulate at once the weight of troops and tanks which will shortly arrive will surely change their minds. • Recon of bases just beyond Shwebo (Mandalay, Meiktila, Magwe) with 9/10 DLs has failed to locate the number of armored vehicles which would show the presence of the Imperal armored division which was recently up near Katha. Three possibilities: it is pulling back to a further defensive line; it is redeploying to the China border to counter attack our salient there; it is preparing for amphibious operations as part of an operation to undermine our heavy commitment in Burma. • As anticipated, we are having trouble upgrading squads in Burma. Monsoon season is going to be a bitch. Japan, Korea, Manchuria, Russia Complete combat report attached.

It's helpful because the lowest levels of fortifications are pretty easy to build. The problem right now is that supply at the bases in Burma is very low and base building of any sort uses supply, so building is slow. There is no supply cap right now because monsoon is not active and I'm trying to build the bases as much as I can to air supply flow when it does.
