CVL Shoho torpedoed on an otherwise uneventful day

Hawaii
I've got enough working planes to get a nightCAP up, and it worked. We shot up 2 Betties that attacked at night, shooting down one of them.

Still no sign of the KB anywhere.

China
It appears that enemy reinforcements are arriving to break the stalemate at Chusien.

Sumatra and West Java
Oscars swept Batavia again, they didn't have the numbers to take over the skies, but were able to shoot down a Buffalo before being driven off.

Celebes
He's almost got complete control. Betties are now bombing my displaced garrisons that took rear areas.

Philippines
Submarine O21 was vectored into an enemy surface combat task force entering the Celebes Sea headed towards the Sulu Sea. Unexpectedly, the CVL Shoho was with them. O21 managed to hit her with 1 of 6 torpedoes fired. These Dutch subs are just owning the enemy CVLs!

Probably 2/3 of my units are now retreating from Clark to Bataan, only units with decent supplies are staying to cover the retreat.
