Thanks for the correction Poultry Kid. Been a while since I heard the song. I'm an old wolf [Boy Scout Leader] who is getting a bit "long in the tooth".

I heard rumour [sic] of some place called "Australia" down there. They allegedly have animals that live in pouches. Pfft...probably also fake.

Sorry, when I saw it I became dizzy, dropped my camera and broke it. Besides, I'd feel bad publishing any pics ahead of Pocahontus Girl.

See..THAT is the reason the Eurozone is slipping back into recession. Not enough productivity!

Now, in my case, I "wasted" 3 1/2 minutes adding silly seaplane search arcs to the map not out idleness or sloth, but because I am making a political statement...the John Gault thing.


By ra way, please tell us the "85" is the year you graduated from university or got married or something and NOT the year you were born.

Mindanao and environs: Dutch sub beats up on poor San Clemente Maru. Anyopne think she'll sink?

Submarine attack near Dadjangas at 79,94

Japanese Ships
TK San Clemente Maru, Torpedo hits 3, heavy damage

Allied Ships
SS O23

I think this was a USMC Regt bound for Dadjangas from Darwin. Damn subs. There are so many choke points in the DEI.

Sub attack near Ambon at 76,111

Japanese Ships
SS I-157

Allied Ships
xAP Empire Pride, Torpedo hits 1, heavy damage
DE Pillsbury
AP George Clymer
AP Crescent City
AP President Polk
AP McCawley
AP Leonard Wood
xAP Dunedin Star
DD MacDonough


Allied ground losses:
Guns lost 1 (1 destroyed, 0 disabled)

And the air drop goes well but they left the CO behind at Ternate. Probably not enough planes or he got air sickness. H-Hour goes well. The Arries have returned to the Phillipines in Feb. 43! Don't nobody tell MacArthur.

Ground combat at Dadjangas (78,93)

Allied Shock attack

Attacking force 300 troops, 12 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 23

Defending force 0 troops, 0 guns, 0 vehicles, Assault Value = 0

Allied adjusted assault: 19

Japanese adjusted defense: 1

Allied assault odds: 19 to 1 (fort level 0)

Allied forces CAPTURE Dadjangas !!!

Combat modifiers
Attacker: shock(+), leaders(-)



Assaulting units:
503rd Parachute Rgt /1
