BBfanboy: Thanks for the compliment! 
December 7th - 12th 1943
As previously stated my opponent is reinforcing Burma front. The japanese now have 1500av near Prome and 1700av at Toungoo.
Allied bombers took casualties previous turn but this has to be accepted. The burning of his supplies is important.
The US carriers made an raid into japanese sealanes and found some transport TF loaded with troops...
