14 MAI 1942
Au Timor, la flotte de bombardement prévue sur Koepang se déroute sur Lautem, dernières possessions alliées sur l île
Plusieurs attaques pour prendre la localité ont échoué et nous y attendons des renforts en provenance de Koepang
Plusieurs catalina sont détruits ou endommagés, et un sous marin, l USS Seawolf, qui avait trouvé refuge dans la baie après avoir été endommagé sévèrement il y a quelques jours, reçoit un obus qui, espérons le, lui sera fatal

A Koepang, les hommes se reposent sur les plages attendant leur tour pour embarquer des navires qui les ramèneront à Soerabaja
Mais une telle concentration de navires attirent les sous marins ennemis comme des requins attirés par le sang...
Heureusement,l'escadrille Chitose 1, équipée de 24 hydravions Jake, est maintenant basée à Koepang, et ses pilotes surveillent les alentours a la recherche de submersibles, signalent leur présence et les attaquent lorsque c'est possible...

En Chine, les malheureux soldat chinois du 99eme Corps en sont pour leur frais...
Croyant pouvoir nous déborder sur nos arrières, ils sont tombés sur 1 division et 4 brigades d'infanterie qui les attendaient patiemment depuis que nous avions repéré leur mouvement.
Les chinois subissent de très lourdes pertes et doivent aussitôt se replier dans le plus grand désordre, mettant ainsi une fin définitive à leur projet....
