Awaiting scramble orders and OOL for z54.  Map attached.

I accidentally killed another Allied tac instead of the second ca in round 1.  The ca got hit by the sub in round 2, so didn’t retaliate.  I will roll here to see if the tac hits, then edit, if so.

1 tac
Rolls: 1@3; Total Hits: 11@3: (3)

OK, I’ll take one more unit off Japan.
