Central Pacific December 31th 1942 - More Fireworks to End the Year
Mr. President the battle for Tulagi is underway. At this time we expect several days of intense combat around Tulagi. While it was unfortunate that some Japanese surface forces hit the transports all troops are ashore safely and only supply is left to unload.
The transports will stay to keep providing the marines ashore.
