I recieved a message about three convoys inbound for truk. In the radio message it said they were comming from home waters which left me to the conclusion that they were coming from the southern ports of honshu. The dates of the estimated arrival were 11th, 15th, and 18th of November 1942. I missed the first one but made it in time for the second and third. So i waited just outside of the northern deep water entrance to truk but somehow I wasnt able to spot nor hear anything in the time from the 14th to late 19th of November. Instead i got detected by a small DD task group consisting of three enemy vessels. Is it possible that I missed two convoys eventhough truk is this small?

best regards
