29 September 1943

Solomons
A pair of destroyers I sent to Guadalcanal caught up with that sub (I think it's just one) hanging out there and depth charged it. Judging from the fact that is sustained significant damage without sinking I'd say the bombers' claims to have hit it were false.


China
The enemy gave up on Nanchang and was retreating in an orderly fashion, so I ordered an attack and turned it into a rout. Casualties 8374 to 550.


We routed another broken unit-a mortar battalion-near the Vietnam border. Gonna let them go at this point.


Japan
USS Pargo became the latest sub to get bombed near Okinawa. It's headed back to Midway for a repair assessment, will probably end up at Pearl.
