Knox Says Yanks Flying Over Marshalls At Will
Navy Secretary Knox said American planes operate practically at will against meager Japanese opposition in the Marshalls, indicating enemy supplies are low. He cited air offensives by carrier and land based aircraft across the island group, and noted difficulty for the Japanese to obtain supplies east of Kwajalein due to the U S blockade. He also said Allied airmen roam over Rabaul, mocking Tokyo claims of 1065 plane losses to 16 Japanese.
