I guess the thing to do, especially after a transfer is wait for 'them' to send a new message, OR go north of Luzon and send my status.
Again, Thanks for all your hard work..pass it on the team too.

Consider it passed, and thank you for the help. You will not get an un-prompted message from Pearl for another assignment, and you want to be at least 1000km away from that red boundary line between SoWesPac and CenPac, else it will be the luck of the draw as to which area you are closest to... but you do have to do a Status Update to get another objective assigned (and the possible renown points).

Is this a lost patrol?

I'll get back with you here in a bit Mios 4Me... I'm in the Nautilus out of Brisbane, April 1943 enroute to Dutch Harbor to participate in Operation Land Crab... (Landcrab??).. when I get out of this #$%&@ pickle I am in at Kusaie (again), I'll save and check the files... dadblame Chidori...
Edit: While I had it paused anyway, quick text file look, the Balao is at Majuro from 1944-04-01 to 1944-10-09, where it then transfers to Guam for 1944-10-07 to NULL. There should not have been a "gap" between active periods when they overlap like that, but it might take a few days for Guam to show. Missions all look fine - not to say that they aren't but the text all looks fine. Where did you originally get the Balao and how did you get it? Is June 1944 the time you sailed, or are coming back in? Thanks!
