30 August 1943

DEI
S-28 torpedoed and sank a PB off the coast of Kendari

A sweep of Ambon by P-38s got rid of 2 Tojos and a Tony with no losses.

We've captured Dili. We'll make an airbase of it soon.


China
The CAF just can't handle the IJA in the air... 4 P-40s lost over Wuchang, no victories.

Burma
Recon flights over Port Victoria report over 100 bombers on the ground there. I wonder what they're waiting for.

Reinforcements
5th BG/394th BS Det arrives at San Francisco (B-24s)
80th FG/459th FS arrives at Karachi (2 P-38s; transitioned them immediately to 25 P-47s)
311th FBG/529th FBS arrives at Aden (14 A-36 (P-51 fighter-bomber variants))
101st Heavy AA Regiment arrives at Aden
