14th Dec

I've a confession to make: I've had the flu for the last couple of days, which may have had some bearing on my hair-brained "Everything flies, don't come home if you sink nowt" Betty scheme...

As it was, the Allied ships vanished into the Fog of War again and my boys didn't have anything to sink within range so they all slept late and wrote letters home instead. Probably a good thing. I've stood them down for a couple of days. They've taken a few losses recently against the Lightnings and could do with lowering a bit of fatigue.

Elsewhere, things were quiet. Subs and Destroyers swapped munitions without anything being damaged and even the tiny, daily Liberator raids over Rabaul didn't achieve anything.

I wonder where all his ships went. South, I reckon. I've a huge proportion of my remaining subs plying the waters between PNG and Oz and I think I would have spotted something if it was inbound to Milne Bay.
