On April 18, 1943 Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, Commander in Chief of the Japanese Fleet lost his life in a daring engagement of the 339th and 12 Fighter Squadrons flying P-38's.In a fictional attempt we will reverse the roles of the Americans and Japanese forces. Two B-26's (no formations) with General MacArthur on board will fly between two fields. Their path will be straight and known to the Japanese forces who will attempt to avenge the death of their beloved Admiral.

CM Notes
 If time a CM may play a second frame and allow players to switch sides.- Suggest start time at 0600 AM- Have the Allies pick one B-26 with General MacArthur on board.- Place C27 at the 11.11.9 sector for the IJN to fly off of. Move all other fleets out of the area.- Make sure Americans don't pick the 3 formations of B-26's. Frame Two will consist of a role switch,
Axis will escort Ki67's, and Allied will intercept.
