Looks like our submarines have found the IJN, and after several months of hiding they look like they are ready to come out and fight. Gee, I wonder how we knew that we should position so many subs around the Tawi Tawi anchorage to look for the Japanese.

Nimitz won’t even hint of the Purple JN 25 decrypts in his own confidential diary.

The IJN is massing for Operation Kon, intended to attack the American amphibious forces invading Biak. The IJN will never execute Kon; it will be superceded by the need to execute A-Go.

Interesting little article on where the government “stimulus” program of buying up eggs got to be so much that they ended up turning the eggs into dog food.

I wonder if this is the origin of the term “This _____ is going to the dogs.”
