Downtown D1 - Turn 2 Summary
First of all, Allan C. has provided this link for his mission write-up. I can't click on it for fear of seeing something I shouldn't, so if there is a problem with the URL, please let me know and we'll get it corrected.
No more flights are detected during the detection phase, so Allan C. again moves his flights onto the map. The four flights on the deck make their way due NE, using the ridge lines for SAM cover.
I position my flights to head towards Hanoi once they are all up to speed, so that they will be protected by the flak cover which Hanoi provides in abundance. Here is their situation at the end of Turn 2:
At the end of turn 2, I decide to keep SAM site G unactivated for now. I hope I'll be able to lite it up when the main raid force enters the map and do a bit of damage with it then.
In the US Admin phase, Allan C. places two flights at High altitude just off of the map, signaling their entrance to the map next turn.
End of turn 2.

Moonlight Beach, Early in the AM
The commute to work was unusually light, so I stopped by Moonlight Beach to see if the storm that passed through last night left some residual swell in it's wake. As you can see from the photos below, it looked real fun out there. Too bad about the high bacteria levels due to the run-off.
There was a slight off shore breeze holding the waves up just the right amount:
*Brrrrrrrr!*
This one guy seemed to be catching most of the waves:
