India/Burma:
Shwebo area (base and 1 hex to west) - Up to 2 large Sendai of Tojos sweep. Then, Oscars escorts in over 100 Helens hit the AF and/or troops daily.

Albany -
22nd - Heavily escorted bombers (mainly Helens) continue to pound on my now defenseless troops. I focus on his reinforcement trying to gain control over all hexsides. F6Fs vs Zero are a win for me. When George and Tojo are added, then the odds even up in losses. My P-40s continue to escort in Avengers and PV-1 to hit the troops and tanks. 9 Corsairs sweep the base with 43 Zero, Tojo, and George on CAP. I lose only 1 for 3 of his. Two more small groups of Corsairs sweep in and destroy three more planes for no losses. Nick voices how much he hates this plane. 
23rd - F6Fs sweep the hex NE of base to allow bombers to attack his tanks in the AM phase. However, no escort for bombers in afternoon.  While the base has a stronger CAP with more Tojo and less Zero. The first wave of Corsairs lose 2 to 1, but when joined by P-47s in the second wave shoot down 8:1.

24th - Despite being outnumber 64 to 16, my P-47s sweep the base and lose only 1 to his 5.  Then, almost a 100 Helens pound on my troops who know their days are numbered. My other group of 17 P-47s get results just as good, 6:1.

Notes:
Western Australia - I'm getting somewhat frustrated here as I see things I should have done. I now have troops marching across the desert from Port Augusta since I see this battle going a lot longer than planned.

RE: Australia Invaded!! NY59Giants (A) vs Olorin (J) - 
My 2e bombers continue to hit both divisions which I hope will prevent an attack. 
48 B-24s hit the AF. 
So, that will play a part. But, I plan to keep attacking the base for at least the next few days.
