Sundas: I try to get some engineers and supplies in to Taberfane so we need a SCTF to guard them. Great intel on the subs, shallow water, float planes on ASW, adequate DD support.....crap.

Vincennes takes two torps, get detached and then takes two more and sinks. Every ship named after something in Indiana gets sunk. I watched the replay. There was a synch issue. Vincennes took two torps but not the second attack and survived.
