The IJA did a minimal assault at Soerajaba. Having attacked with a division
and an armor "brigade" yesterday - both were too disrupted to be used without
penalty today - 25th Army HQ, a 15 cm artillery regiment, and two newly
arrived armor brigades did a minimalist assault today - successfully reducing
fortifications yet again. Soerabaja should fall tomorrow.

In this test of RHS 105 (a Japan Enhanced Scenario)- Yamashita's proposals to
form an armored corps were followed early. [Eventually they were implemented by
him, after the conquest of Malaya, but the corps never saw much action. By the
time one division did engage on Luzon, its 1942 equipment (some of it 1935 vintage)
was hopelessly outclassed. In 1942 in Asia - these units would have been demigods.
The light armor was ideal for the 10 standard main road bridges of the area. These
units were semi-independent - because IJA lacked motorized support organizations. So
they were outfitted with spare vehicles, relief drivers, and first, second and third
echelon maintenance in the parent organization. Yamashita's contribution was to call
for approximately 1:1 infantry to tank ratios - typically 4 battalions of each (one
of the infantry battalions was mechanized) - in addition to combined arms elements
(a motorized light artillery regiment and a motorized medium artillery battalion,
an engineer "unit" - an AAA "unit" - and a communications "unit" (units are two company
strength - sort of baby battalions) - and both brigade and divisional HQ. These
are very light armored units - and would not do well against the Soviet armored divisions
of the period (later disbanded in favor of armored corps - sort of giant divisions). But
the Soviets are not fighting in the East at this time.

The Aussies like to put armor forward - and when the enemy enters
the hex - run away before the attack can go home. Today - near
Bundaberg - where there is an unusual two hex front line both with
main roads - both front line armor units were pounded by Japanese
bombers - both failed to retreat - and both were attacked by ground
forces while they were in movement mode. That, of course, cost them
a lot of vehicles.

Note that the Allies detected half the Kiddo Butai in the Indian
Ocean near the Northern (Western in real world terms) tip of
Sumatra. It sank the remaining allied surface vessels in the area.
Submarine detections today and previously indicate a major gathering
of surface vessels at or near the Andaman Islands - including one
huge one sunk today (with troops on board).

In spite of excessive aircraft losses, Allied air power succeeded in
causing two IJA divisions at "the tip of the spear" to turn around -
so only a significantly supported brigade invested Marysborough for
today's attack. Again, in spite of excessive air losses, Allied
bombers did some damage to that unit. More casualties were caused
by naval bombardment. This, combined with fortifications, prevented
the Japanese attack from achieving decisive odds, so it failed.
