Burma: Looking really bad for the base forces at the rear end of the retreat. An enemy unit of unknown strength has passed through the mountains and occupied a river crossing in front of them. Just about every unit that's already made it across that river, though, is fully supplied. I'm actually turning a few units around that are in fighting shape to see if the enemy unit is weak enough to engage and maybe help the rest of my procession get through.
Sweeps over Mandalay got 8 Zeroes with just 1 Hurricane lost.
Babar: Attacked the enemy base with a cruiser-destroyer group. They finished off a damaged transport (Sanju Maru) that had been left behind.
Canton Island: We spotted a cargo ship here, probably a supply run. Diverted a destroyer that was escorting our own cargo ships south of Canton and sank it without any real resistance.
