Mid to late May, 1942 A destroyer blunders yesterday into a mine at Tabby, but she will make it one hex and disband into the dot base north of Tabby... Subs are starting to show up...Porpoise and Perch I think. Meanwhile two bombardment TFs show up at Tabby, and we catch more freshly created PT boat squadrons. The resulting turkey shoot is par for the course with the lone surviving PT boat destroyed in the morning.
