We didn't have enough for the CV, but we knew we could probably kill the battleship.  Unfortunately the fleet turned right as we dove in.  Our bombs splashed harmlessly alongside the BB and Nomde and OB were hit by flak.

But Frenchy bagged a P-38 and I got a F4F before we RTB'd.  Those twin .50 cals in the nose are very effective.  :D

SBD is very beautifully modelled, HTC.

i often remember our t.o.d strike with the ´daimler benz wolfsatz´ i think we can repeat this some day....

The eagle flies up towards the sun
High above the fields of babylon
In one claw he holds an olive branch for peace
In the other, twelve arrows for his enemies
