AFTER ACTION REPORTS FOR Mar 02, 42
" z- _, l' H4 ~3 V% m当晚是个大满月,PT编队如愿遭遇敌方登陆编队,本以为会是一场屠杀,却让对方全身而退,
7 x7 J7 T4 ^7 A! Y报告显示,日军编队先发现盟军矮小的PT然后跑了,而盟军PT居然没发现巨大的运输船!
* r0 I0 y' K; r% d/ Z& |4 L; E盟军无所事事撤往事先设置的基地孔雀港,却发现日军不是来登陆苏门答腊岛的,而是来登陆爪哇的!8 {8 s! k& K7 h: J4 i4 e
PT编队和守卫滩头的BB编队打了个照面,又跑了,跑到了航程的极限三宝垄港 # _5 c" M" E6 Z$ S8 A
日军过孔雀港而不入,然后又返回登陆孔雀港,这是为啥呢?
