kaleun -> RE: Operation standing coconut begins (11/6/2005 6:32:06 AM)
Lots of action today. In the Marshalls, an allied battleship TF is attacked by Betties. The big ships escape damage, but two light cruisers, Honolulu and Denver get creamed, the TF later on Bombards Jaluit. In Amboina, an enemy Battleship TF with Kongo and Hiei among them intercepts and heavily damages a barge TF bringing supplies to the bridgehead at Amboina. However, the Battleships get attacked by Avengers from Carrier Task Group 1 and Kongo eats a torpedo[:)]That will show them! The Air battle at Rabaul continues, with the allied forces slowly attriting the Japs. Here is the AAR (Abbreviated)[:D] AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR 04/15/43 Night Time Surface Combat, near Amboina at 39,73 Japanese Ships BB Kongo BB Hiei CA Ashigara CL Jintsu CL Yura CL Kinu DD Akigumo DD

kaleun -> 1st Carrier division bushwhacked! (11/7/2005 4:37:01 AM)
The commander of the first carrier division got greedy, and stayed around too long to see if he could get another torpedo into Kongo. The result was getting jumped by Akagi et al. Meanwhile the air battle for Rabaul continues, with, it seems, the Japanese fighters taking the losing part.

Map of the Amboina area. Note that the Betties are flying from Sorong. Also note the location of the sinking of SS Scamp that was serving as a picket on the strait NW of Amboina [image]local://upfiles/6626/9447CB25A0B947C4A335FC5BDA9748CE.jpg[/image]

Japanese forces seem to be making a second drive on Mytkivina. Enemy paratroopers attempt a drop on Mytkivina, and meet a strong resistance. Japanese high command is yet again trying to find a way out of its morass in China, by attempting to cut the Burma road again. It will not find it as easy as in 42.[8\|] AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR 05/01/43 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TF 109 encounters mine field at Kwajalein

A small Japanese contingent has been seen trying to outflank Mytkivina and cut the Burma road, however they should be easy to deal with. In the Marshalls, large enemy fleet units are still spotted at Kwajalein. The airfields at Lae, Sorong and Rabaul are still shut down. This has allowed (finally[8\|]) an AK convoy to unload supplies unmolested at Buin. Despite owning the base at Amboina, the allied forces are unable to clear the Japanese defenders from the base area. Additional reinforcements have been committed and should arrive within the next few days.

The Amboina operation is taking far too long to complete. It is now delaying other operations of greater importance. Amboina was just menat to be a small test, and also the recapture of the first of the (small)oil bases. Ideally it would add some oil to the Oz economy, as well as annoy his warspite-san -ness. It is however swallowing up too many resources.
