23 March 1942
SOPAC
I lost a midget sub trying to attack Sydney. Apparently I did this wrong by manually detaching the sub from its mothership by giving it its own task force entity at the target, the correct way to do it is to leave both boats in the same TF and let the code handle the port infiltration. So it just sat there until a DD found it.
USS Porter (DD) was spotted between Luganville and Fiji in a very interesting position--Just outside escorted torpedo bomber range from Luganville and right at maximum torpedo bomber range from Noumea. Looks like he's testing my defenses. The Betty flying as a scout that spotted her claimed a bomb hit.
Java
A heavy surface task force rebasing from the Makassar area to Singapore encountered an enemy minesweeper off Pontianak and sank it.
China
Another I-15 taken care of over Sian.
N. Australia
Another Betty raid on Darwin sank an AKL and hit the destroyer Thracian again. (Spoiler: based on subsequent recon, it's likely both DD that were here were sunk by these raids). The raid cost me one Betty thanks to flak.
