Today and tomorrow, one group of Task Force 38 fuels each day.
Submarines
First report from north Yellow Sea subs comes from BLUEFISH (SS 222)
whose only results to date are a small freighter sunk.
In the Kuriles, PIPER (SS 409) reports hunting not good. A sweep
was made of the area where most contacts were made in 1944 without results.
Some shipp ng was seen close along the Kurile chain.
From the same area, PLAICE (SS 390) reports adding a damaged
trawler to her bag.
At 0050(K) JACK (SS 259), on lifeguard station off Kyushu, had a
raaar contact with an unknown ship with 10 CM radar. The submarine trailed
at maximnm speed for five hours, during which time she was able to reduce
the bearing of her target from 125 to 120. There is a possibility that this
was an enemy surface ship on course 150, speed 20. Last contact at 29-55,
132-50.
